Ultraviolet detection device

This creation relates to an ultraviolet detection device, and more particularly to a smart ultraviolet detection device that prompts a user to select an appropriate sunscreen application.

With the development of science, it has been confirmed that the ultraviolet index in sunlight is closely related to the biosphere. For humans, proper amount of ultraviolet radiation can help the body produce vitamin D, but excessive exposure to ultraviolet light can cause harm to the human body. Lighter skin burns, and severe cases can suppress the immune system and may lead to skin cancer.

The energy of ultraviolet light is related to its wavelength, and the shorter the wavelength, the more harmful the human body can cause damage. The ultraviolet light band can be divided into three wavelength bands of UVA (400 nm to 320 nm), UVB (320 nm to 280 nm), and UVC (280 nm to 180 nm). Because the ozone layer in the atmosphere has a great absorption of UVC, the UVC band is less likely to reach the surface of the earth; as for the UVA band, the longest wavelength has a lower impact on the human body; therefore, the main cause of damage to the human body is UVB. This ultraviolet band of the band.

In recent years, the amount of ultraviolet radiation that has hit the ground has increased year by year due to the long-term destruction of the Earth's ozone layer by anthropogenic emissions of CFCs, which has led to a year-on-year decrease in ozone.

For this reason, sunscreen smear supplies have appeared in the market in recent years. on. However, for UV protection, different UV indicators need to be combined with different levels of protection to achieve the best protection, instead of applying the highest protection factor (Sun Protection Factor, SPF). Sunscreen smear products, for example, high SPF sunscreen lotion, although its protective effect is strong, but it is easy to cause discomfort or allergies to human skin.

For example, there are four types of people (white, yellow, white, yellow, black), and the minimum reddening dose (MEDs) that human skin can bear for each race (whites 200) J/m ² , yellowish skin color 400 J/m ² , yellow color black 575 J/m ² , black 2850 J/m ² ). It is more helpful to protect the UV rays by using appropriate sunscreen spreads.

As for the calculation of the light fastness, for example, the following examples can be used for estimation: total value = SPF value x degree of light tolerance of a person

Remaining time (seconds) = SPF value x human light fastness / (UVI value x 25) SPF value x human light fastness / (UVI value x 5) / 60 (seconds) = minutes

Take two examples of yellow people, for example, not using sunscreen articles (Example 1) and sunscreen applicators using SPF=10 (Example 2): Example 1: 450000/(10 x 25)/60=26.67

Example 2: 10 x 400000/(15 x 25)/60=177.78 points = 2.96 hours
