Noushin Nasiri and her research team have developed the world first personalised UV sensor to improve sun safety and prevent skin cancer.

he wearable 'sun safety sensor' prototype, the first of its kind, is about the size of a fingernail. The real-time sensor detects a user’s exact location, determining whether they are indoors or outdoors, in shade or sunlight, and how much ultra-violet radiation their skin has absorbed over 24 hours. The story has been broadcast by 2GB, Channel 10 News, The Lighthouse and NSSN.
