Key Challenges Anticipated
The main anticipated challenges with this project will be creating a user friendly interface and displaying an accurate UV image in order to increase user awareness of UV risk. As with any project involving a user interface, one challenge will be making sure the interface is convenient and user friendly, while preventing station degradation by environmental elements. The goal is to create the most accurate reading of UV exposure as possible. This will require integration of multiple images, both normal and UV light, using MATLAB. Furthermore, our operating system must have an adequate amount of processing power to run a continuous MATLAB script. The purpose of this design is to inform users of their UV risk with the hope that, as it is pointed out, they will take preventative action against further UV damage. However, this requires interpretation of risk given the amount of UV exposure. Risk varies with each individual, so ranges will need to be determined.
