Heart Rate Monitor? How did he do it!?

BlueJayOnToast · Jan 8th 2013, 6:12am

A long time ago I did a video where I was wearing a heartrate monitor and I just checked the screen when I was scared and said it. But Pewdie's new video is really good and really cool! Any idea how he put his heart rate monitor in the video?

Well, a heart rate monitor isn't hard to get... here anyway... I think I saw them at the drug store with blood pressure meters. I think people wear them while running. But how to connect one to a computer, that I have no idea of... D:

All together it's a great idea! I have a feeling some others will "copy" this.

No I have a heart rate monitor already! I use it while I work out, I just am asking how did he get it in the video.

Oh. I can't read.

Mmm... sorry if I sound like a dick but I assume you have tried to Google this?

For one thing, you can record the screen thingy of the Heart Rate Monitor [where the numbers go] using a tripod or something and later add it to the gameplay footage and crop out unnecessary parts.

That's what I would do if I couldn't figure out how it was really done.

Think Felix did the same thing too.

Chances are the HR monitor has some software that shows it on-screen like a widget, have that always on top, put it over gameplay, record screen done.

Alternatively record HR monitor with 1 program, record gameplay with another, throw it all together just like facecaming with sony vegas or other programs.

Doesn't seem too hard to find a way, but one can never be exactly sure unless you have his HR monitor and know what softwares it has available.

I think he use to record his HRM with a camera and upload it to his computer and then manipulate it with Adobe Premiere Pro elements that's what i think so...

he recorded the hrm with a camera and then edited it so i mt was was just the little screen because at the end of the video when he touch his desk you can see the hrm move a little bit
