    Abstract: A method and a lighting control system for automatically determining a calibration curve for use in daylight harvesting applications. The lighting control system comprises a light sensor configured for recording light levels and a load controller configured for provide a dimmed output to a lighting load. The calibration curve comprises a calibration slope (SC) defined by a calibration coordinate (CC) and a night coordinate (CN). The calibration coordinate (CC) comprises a calibration dimming level (DC) set by a user and a calibration light level (LC) recorded by the light sensor when the lighting load is set to the calibration dimming level (DC). The night coordinate (CN) comprises a night scene dimming level (DN) and a night scene light level (LN), wherein the night scene light level (LN) comprises a difference between a sunlight plus night scene light level (LNS) recorded by the light sensor when the lighting load is set to the night scene dimming level (DN) and a sunlight level (LS) recorded by the light sensor when the lighting load is turned off.

    Abstract: A user-wearable device includes a front facing first light detector and a backside optical sensor, which faces the user's skin and includes a light source and a second light detector. The device also includes a skin tone detector and an ultraviolet (UV) exposure detector. The UV exposure detector is adapted to determine estimate(s) of a user's exposure to UV light in dependence on signal(s) produced using the first light detector, calibrate UV exposure threshold(s) in dependence on a skin tone metric produced using the skin tone detector, compare estimate(s) of a user's exposure to UV light to calibrated UV exposure threshold(s), and selectively trigger an alert in dependence on results of the comparison(s). The second light detector is also used to produce a photoplethysmography (PPG) signal from which measures heart rate (HR), heart rate variability (HRV), respiration rate (RR) or respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) is/are produced.
