Claim 14:
15. A method of monitoring ultraviolet (“UV”) exposure of a wearer, comprising:
(a) detecting UV radiation levels to which the wearer is exposed via a wearable device worn by the wearer, wherein the wearable device comprises a UV sensor configured to generate UV radiation information;
(b) transmitting the UV radiation information to a computing device;
(c) filtering the UV radiation information to obtain a maximum value of the UV radiation information,
(d) filtering the maximum value of the UV radiation information to determine if an orientation event has occurred and obtain an adjusted UV radiation information,
(e) determining 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,
(f) periodically repeating steps (a)-(e) to obtain an updated percent minimal erythema dose.
