14. A computer executable method of determining if a UV sensing device is at least partially covered, comprising:
-
receiving information indicative of a signal from a proximity light detector that is disposed within a wearable UV sensing device, the information indicative of light reflected onto the proximity light detector from a proximity light source disposed in the wearable UV sensing device; determining, based on the information received, if the proximity light source is covered by a material; and sending a signal to a remote device to initiate an alert to a user of the determination that the proximity light source is covered and that the material should be removed from covering the proximity light source. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16)

17. A computer executable method for automatically entering sleep mode on a wearable UV sensor, comprising:
-
receiving information indicative of a signal from a visible light sensor that is disposed in a wearable UV sensing device; using the information to determine if a condition of darkness adjacent the UV sensor has persisted for a period of time; and initiating a sleep mode for the wearable UV sensor if a determination has been made that a condition of darkness has persisted for a period of time. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)
