That would be a neat add on.  I have a free standing device (Oxsimeter I think its called?) that I use now but I don't have enough info on how to interpret the sensor output in order to display blood oxygen saturation.  Giving bad info on this would be worse than giving bad engine temps so I'm kind of hesitant to go there.
