1. A system for monitoring ultraviolet (UV) exposure of a wearer, comprising:
a wearable device operable to sense UV radiation levels to which the wearer is exposed and to transmit UV radiation information; and
a computing device in communication with said wearable device,
wherein said computing device is configured to perform the following steps—
(a) receive the UV radiation information from the wearable device,
(b) filter the UV radiation information to obtain a maximum value of the UV radiation information,
(c) filter the maximum value of the UV radiation information to determine if an orientation event has occurred and obtain an adjusted UV radiation information,
(d) determine a percent minimal erythema dose based on the adjusted UV radiation information, wherein the percent minimal erythema dose is further based on a skin type factor and a sun protection factor associated with the wearer,
(e) periodically repeat steps (a)-(d) to obtain an updated percent minimal erythema dose.
