Abstract
A system (100) that determines exposure based on local conditions is disclosed. The system can include a sensor (172) configured to sense local conditions local to a user of the system, a sensor local wireless transmitter (174) coupled to the sensor, and an electronic device (105). The electronic device can include a controller (120) configured to control operations of the electronic device, a device local wireless transceiver (155) coupled to the controller and wirelessly coupled to the sensor local wireless transmitter, a network interface coupled (150) to a wide area network and coupled to the controller, the network interface configured to obtain local environmental conditions, and an exposure module (190) coupled to the controller. The exposure module can determine exposure to an environmental element based at least on the local conditions sensed by the sensor and the local environmental conditions obtained by the network interface.
