Abstract

La présente invention porte sur un dispositif de détection dans l'ultraviolet qui comprend : une couche de changement de couleur (401) qui change de couleur selon la quantité de lumière ultraviolette ; un premier capteur de détection de couleur (102) qui détecte la couleur de la couche de changement de couleur (401) ; et un second capteur de détection de couleur (502) qui détecte la couleur d'une lumière visible externe. Par correction d'une valeur de sortie provenant du premier capteur de détection de couleur (102) par une valeur de sortie provenant du second capteur de détection de couleur (502), la quantité de lumière ultraviolette peut être obtenue de manière précise en tant qu'informations électroniques sans être influencée par des changements dans la couleur d'une lumière incidente externe.
