What happens if the sun-a-wear sensor is out of range?
If you use sun-a-wear, it can of course happen that you forget or lose it, your smartphone is not within range. For example, when you go swimming with the sensor. Then what happens to the data? Does the sensor buffer the measured data? Or are the UV measurements lost?
The sun-a-wear sensor has a small buffer. In this, he can remember the accumulated UV dose for some time and then inform the app as soon as the smartphone is within range again. That means, it doesn't matter if your sun-a-wear sensor is out of range. The decisive factor for it to work, however, is that the sensor does not have to switch itself off occasionally due to a lack of energy.
Our sensor has no battery, so you don't have to keep charging it. It draws its energy - how could it be otherwise - from the sun. But that also means that if it is completely covered for two to three minutes, for example, it switches itself off. Then he also forgets all measurements that have not been sent to your smartphone until then.
