Dear all,

I'm trying to simulate an ECG waveform for an academic project in C#, what i've done so far is that i used dummy (but realistic) data that i plot. But, to make my project more interesting, I'm thinking of finding a substitute of the normal electrodes to connect to my PC in order to get real data. What is some casual devices I can use in order to replace the electrodes and get the data for my app?

How little should be a price of the device to make it "casual"?

I mean something used a lot (mobile phone or any other device)

ECG electrodes are very simple, and procedure is totally safe. You can use your own body. As to the "casual" recording device, this could be the most expensive thing. ADC board with pre-amplifier, perhaps digital oscilloscope… are they casual enough for you? :-)

I think I can do it! but how can I use it to connect to my PC and my c# app?

See the spec of the oscilloscope. Would you like me to ask my colleagues using them right now? They would tell me what are the most typical interfaces available today. And an ADC board could be a PCI board.
