How to Build an Arduino UV Index Meter With a VEML6070

View full article: maker.pro/arduino/projects/ho...
In this project, I will show you how you can measure UV radiation using the VEML6070 UV sensor, an Arduino UNO, and a Nokia 5110 LCD to build your own UV exposure meter. This project allows us to measure UV radiation in realtime. For more information, as well as all the latest Maker Pro projects and articles, visit the official website at maker.pro

Very cool :) This UV sensor is quite accurate and provides fast reading for arduino. The first disadvantage is that the sensor needs to be at correct 90 degress to the sun, or othervise the measurement will be not correct. The second is that a certified UV sensor is needed to calibrate it as accurate it could be. But this is only my oppinion of course. Good job :)
