An apparatus for quantifying irradiance has a first sensor having an output for providing a reference signal of irradiance within a first band, such as the visible light band. A filter and a second sensor are in optical series so that irradiance sensed at the second sensor is filtered. The second sensor outputs a filtered signal of irradiance within the first band. The filter particularly filters irradiance in the first band as a function of irradiance in the second band, such as the UV light band. In an exemplary embodiment, the filter is made from a material that darkens with increasing UV irradiance. A processor has inputs coupled to the outputs of the first and second sensors for determining irradiance in the second band from the reference signal and the filtered signal. Mathematical formulations for the processor are provided, as are methods and a computer program embodied on a medium. A single sensor embodiment is also described.

The invention relates to a device comprising a disk drive 1 for rotating a disk memory and at least one interface enabling a data flow between a rotating disk memory and at least one other module 10, 12. In order to enable a comfortable use of such a device, it is proposed that the device further comprises means 2 for setting the rotation speed of the disk drive 1 based on an indication of the data rate supported by an interface of the device, which interface is currently to be employed for enabling a data flow between the rotating disk memory and at least one other module 10, 12. The invention relates equally to a method setting the rotation speed of a disk drive 1 according to the capabilities of an interface enabling a data flow between a disk memory rotated by the disk drive 1 and another module 10, 12.
