Importance
 The skin care product market is growing
 due to the threat of ultraviolet (UV) radiation
caused:



Destruction of the ozone layer
Increasing demand for tanning
The tendency to wear less clothing
 Potential
demand for a personalized UV
monitoring device,  cancer prevention by
providing measurements of UV radiation
intensities and corresponding recommendations.

Summary
 Based on a novel software architecture, a high-
end UV sensor, and conventional PDA (or a cell
phone).
 short-term applications: calculating the UV
index  maximum recommended sun exposure
time.
 Long-term applications: it displays the amount
of UV received over a certain course of time,
from a single day to a month.
 Low energy consumption and high precision in
estimating the UV index (precision of 0.2).

Summary
 UVI precision is ± 0.2 UVI and is extendable to 0.1.
 Noise cancellation in hardware
 Noise cancellation in software
 Our Accuracy to estimate the UV index is two and five
times higher than current UV index estimators:
 EryF from Scitec
 Oregon Scientific UV Sensor
 Exploiting the dynamic power management technique
on the UV sensor
 Two times longer lifetime relative to EryF from Scitec

Did You Know?
 The skin is the largest organ of the body
 Most Common Cancer = Skin Cancer!
1.3 Million Cases in the U.S.
~ 1 person dies every hour
• Melanoma is considered as the most lethal form of skin
cancer.
• In the year 2008, about 62,480 persons are expected to be
diagnosed with melanoma resulting in the death of an
estimated 8,420 individuals (California).
• Alarmingly, the incidence of melanoma is increasing
rapidly in children.
The radiation of UV is about 10% of total solar radiation. It is divided into three
ranges based on the wavelength: UV-A (320-400 nm), UV-B (280-320 nm), and
UV-C (100-280 nm).

UV Index
The Global Solar UV Index (UVI) describes the level of solar UV
radiation at the Earth’s surface. The values of the index range from
zero upward – the higher the index value, the greater the potential for
damage to the skin and eye, and the less time it takes for harm to
occur.

The study of the erythemal influence has been frequently based on
the minimum dose of UV erythemal radiation that will produce a
noticeable reddening of human skin that has not been previously
exposed to solar radiation. This dose is known internationally as the
MED (minimum erythemal dose) and is always related to a specific
skin type. If the UV irradiance is 1 MED/hour, then it will take an hour
for a person exposed to this irradiance to receive the minimum
erythemal dosage. 1 MED corresponds to a total dose of 210 J/m2.
Thus 1 MED/hour = (210 J/m2)/3600 s = 58.3 mW/m2 = 2.33 UVI.
UVI Versus Location
1. 85% increase from snow reflection
2. 100% increase at 3000m altitude
3. 25% increase from white-water
reflection
4. 80% of UV rays pass through cloud
5. 20% from sand and grass
reflection - and 40% when wet
6. 15% reflection from concrete
buildings
7. 50% can be reflected into shaded
areas
8. 50% UVB and 80% UVA passes
through the upper 50cm of water
9. 50% increase from water reflection

A person with a skin type of 3, in a UV index of 10, will start to sunburn
after just 20 minute of unprotected exposure to the sun:
[200 (min) / 10 (UVI) = 20 min]
If this person uses an SPF 30 sunscreen this becomes 600 minutes, or 10 hours:
[20 (min) × 30 (SPF) = 600 min].

Experimental Results
The data were gathered on a partially cloudy day in June in Los Angeles
and we kept the device fixed on the roof of an eight-story building.

Idle mode: 3 mW
The calculation of the UV index is performed every 15
seconds and in order to get an accurate estimation of
the UV index, the average of four consecutive sensor
measurements is taken into account.
17
Accuracy
Due to noise cancellation in software, and also considering the fact that
ML8511 is less sensitive to the angle with respect to the sun, we were
able to extract the UV index with the precision of 0.2 which is 2 and 5
times more accurate than previous tiny devices produced by (OS 2008)
and (EPP 2008).
18
Future Work
The gathered data show that unlike similar UV sensors, ML8511 is less
sensitive to the angle with respect to the sun.
20 degrees rotation  10 percent decrease in the UV Index
1- Integrating the system with a gyro to correct the error caused by
rotation.
2- Putting a specified number of sensor on a Half Sphere and taking the
maximum over their outputs.
