To keep tabs on your UV exposure, a wearable sensor from L’Oréal will be provided

It has been claimed by L’Oréal that a wearable device that analyzes your exposure to ultraviolet radiation, which can cause skin cancer, has been developed and is now under development. A battery isn’t required for the La Roche-Posay My Skin Track UV sensor because it uses NFC instead of Bluetooth to communicate its data, which means it may be clipped onto your clothing or backpack. Previously, L’Oreal offered a fingernail-attached sensor.

Despite the hazards of ultraviolet radiation, it’s impossible to gauge how much you’re actually getting hit with. You may be more exposed to UVA rays than you realize because they can pass through both clouds and glass. However, L’Oréal’s sensor has the ability to educate people about how often they’re exposed, but it won’t solve the problem of individuals not using enough sunscreen in reaction to this information

If you’re using an iOS smartphone, your phone can use the UV data to connect to Apple’s HealthKit. La Roche-skincare Posay’s products will also be available via shortcuts within the app.

One of the sensors is designed to assess UVA radiation, which penetrates deep into your skin and is most likely to induce wrinkles. Wired points out that it then utilizes this data to predict UVB exposure. Wired. Despite the fact that both UVA and UVB rays have been linked to an increased risk of skin cancer, UVB has the greater impact here, causing your skin to blister and burn.

The sensor costs $59.95 and is only available at Apple Stores and on the company’s website beginning today in the United States. Apps for iOS and Android are available for use with the companion app.
