Abstract:
A system for measuring light intensity of a specific location and wirelessly transferring the light intensity data contains at least one light intensity sensing assembly and a computing device. The light intensity data is recorded by the light intensity sensing assembly and is wirelessly transferred to the computing device. The light intensity sensing assembly contains a dome lens, a photocell, a processing unit, a wireless data-transferring module, and a portable power source. The photocell is centrally mounted within the dome lens in order to receive a maximum amount of light. The photocell is electronically connected to the processing unit. In order to transmit the light intensity data, the processing unit is electronically connected to the wireless data transfer module. The photocell, the processing unit, and the wireless data-transferring module are powered by the portable power source.

Disclosed herein are a system and method for controlling the temperature of a user. The wearable device may include a first temperature measurement unit configured to measure a temperature of a user and a control unit configured to calculate a temperature difference by comparing the temperature measured by the first temperature measurement unit with a previously stored temperature of the user at normal times, provide temperature measurement information to an external device if the calculated temperature difference is more than a reference temperature difference for a predetermined time, and receive service information for controlling the temperature of the user based on the temperature measurement information from the external device.
Abstract:
Eyewear having radiation monitoring capability is disclosed. Radiation, such as ultraviolet (UV) radiation, infrared (IR) radiation or light, can be measured by a detector. The measured radiation can then be used in providing radiation-related information to a user of the eyewear. Advantageously, the user of the eyewear is able to easily monitor their exposure to radiation.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes a housing and one or more processors. At least one proximity sensor component is operable with the one or more processors and includes an infrared signal receiver to receive an infrared emission from an object external to the housing. At least one proximity detector component is also operable with the one or more processors and includes a signal emitter and corresponding signal receiver. The one or more processors can actuate the at least one proximity detector component when the at least one proximity sensor component receives the infrared emission from the object.
Abstract:
Systems and methods may provide for receiving an electrical measurement signal from a first photodetector coupled to a first waveguide and determining a total intensity level of reflected light in the first waveguide based on the electrical measurement signal. Additionally, a perspiration level of skin in contact with the first waveguide may be determined based on the total intensity level of the reflected light in the first waveguide. In one example, an electrical control signal is received from a second photodetector coupled to a second waveguide that is physically isolated from the skin, wherein the total intensity level of the reflected light in the first waveguide is determined further based on the electrical control signal.
Abstract:
A sterilization system consisting of a mobile emitter, a sensing subsystem and a data logging subsystem is described. The emitter has one or more UV emitting lamps or devices. The sensing system comprises at least one remote UV sensor and at least one door sensor. The door sensor comprises a safety shut off door detector and may contain an emergency stop detector and arming detector to protect people from being exposed to UV energy. The system has a remote control for starting, stopping and setting system parameters which include but are not limited to: treatment time, dosage, room size, room number, unit number, floor, facility name, operator name, operator identification number, password, default dosage values, dosage, and patient identification number. The number of treatments per unit of time can be maximized because of the use of incident light measurement.
