Abstract

The objective of this research was to develop a mobile application to estimate the values of the ultraviolet index in real time using a theoretical model and the light sensor of the cell phone. For which an application is developed in Android Studio. The correlation and standard error statistics are considered for the validation of the measurements and a portable meter, to compare the measurements in real time in the city of Puno. Considerable results were obtained for eight days during the year 2021 considering the four seasons of the year. Where a data correlation of 0.99 was obtained between the data estimated by the cell phone with respect to the data measured by the GD-UV06 UV meter and a maximum average standard error of 0.521. Concluding that it is possible to estimate ultraviolet index values through the use of a cell phone and mobile App in real time.
