Heartbeat.py

Python
Python script to run the Instagram and video threads on the Pi. This script runs on the Pi and waits for a button signal.
#This script has three threads, one for the Instagram function, one for the video player and one for the button. 
#When the Instagram button is pressed, a blank video is played until the number of likes on the latest post increases.  When an increase is detected, a video of a electrocardiogram heartbeat plays.
#When the video button is pressed, the script plays a video.  Each press cycles through a predefined set of videos.
