OPTICAL PROXIMITY SENSOR AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF
A complex optical proximity sensor includes a substrate, a light emitter coupled to the substrate, an application-specific integrated circuit chip coupled to the substrate with a proximity sensor thereon, a barrier disposed between the application-specific integrated circuit chip and the light emitter, and an ambient light detection chip manufactured in advance and then coupled to the application-specific integrated circuit chip thereon with a pre-determined height. Also, with the manufacturing method of the complex optical proximity sensor, the detection angle of the ambient light is thereby maximized and the one of the proximity sensor is thereby minimized.

System and method of estimating spectral contributions in ambient light and correcting field of view errors
The present disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices for estimating spectral contributions in ambient light. The present disclosure also describes systems, methods, and devices for compensating for field of view errors resulting from the user, contextual structures (e.g., buildings, trees, fixtures, or geological formations), atmospheric effects (e.g., ozone coverage, smog, fog, haze, or clouds), device structures, and/or device orientation/tilt relative to a light source being measured (e.g., sun, indoor/outdoor light emitter, or an at least partially reflective surface). The present disclosure also describes systems, methods, and devices for estimating spectral contributions in light or color measurements and accounting for field of view errors to obtain a refined estimate.

ULTRAVIOLET BASED DETECTION AND ANALYSIS
A system for recommending ultraviolet protection for a subject's skin includes an interrogation device, an analysis device, and an output device. The interrogation device has an ultraviolet sensitive module configured to generate interrogation data based on sensed electromagnetic energy reflected by the subject's skin in response to irradiation of the subject's skin by an ultraviolet electromagnetic energy source. The analysis device is configured to receive the interrogation data from the interrogation device and generate an ultraviolet analysis, which includes a recommendation for further ultraviolet protection of the subject's skin, based at least in part on the interrogation data. The output device receives the ultraviolet analysis and outputs the recommendation for further ultraviolet protection of the subject's skin.
