The UV Dosimeter invented by Martin Allen in collaboration with Niwa and Canterbury University. It can be worn like a watch or pinned to clothing.
A small device to measure exposure to ultraviolet radiation could one day be sold to schools and researchers to help prevent skin cancer. The UV Dosimeter, invented by Canterbury University computer engineer Martin Allen, can be worn like a wristwatch or pinned to different parts of the body.
