Live Wallpaper for EMS

I'm a paramedic and had a cool idea for a live wallpaper. I have not the slightest idea of how to make said wallpaper. I'm looking for someone to help me out. I will compensate you for your time :)

I picture a wallpaper that is showing a ECG hearth rhythm of "Normal Sinus" when the battery is 100% to 25%. When the battery life drops below 25% the rhythm is "ventricular tachycardia". When battery life drops below 10% the rhythm is "ventricular fibrillation". And as battery life drops below 5% the rhythm is asystole. As the phone charges the rhythm shows "supraventricular tachycardia".

Would something like this be possible?
 
I have started to work on this for past couple of weeks now. This is really my fast app so it is taking time to get it done :)

I have made good progress so far (I feel) and will post screen shots soon (new account rules!) but I have a question regarding the different wave patterns. What is the heart beat range in each case?

I thought of adding a blinking heart icon at the top of the wallpaper indicating bpm ..... lower battery faster beats? Just throwing stuff out there. Just the waves alone makes it kinda look bland :D

This sounds awesome! Cant wait to see it. Ill help you the best I can, and I like your idea for additions of the BPM blinking.
Heart rates are as followed for each:
Normal Sinus 60-100
VTach 180-200
VFib 270-300
SVT 180+

These rates are per the book. Here is a quick reference that isnt bad http://www.ambulancetechnicianstudy.co.uk/rhythms.html#.T_NXnZRZ7YM

Lower battery, faster beats. In medicine as the heart fails it get faster in specific rhythms.
Again, thanks alot for taking this on!
