Ultraviolet radiation monitoring apparatus, system having the same, and method thereof

A method of providing updated personal health instructions on UV protection, comprising:

• operating a monitoring apparatus in an authenticated mode, the monitoring apparatus comprising one or more authenticators for collecting user identity information and at least a controller for determining that collected user identity information matches with that of one authenticated user stored in a memory of the monitoring apparatus;
• measuring intensity of UV radiation by the monitoring apparatus in real time to generate an ultraviolet index (UVI) value at a present time;
• storing the UVI value at the present time and a corresponding exposure time as latest historical UVI data into a first memory of the monitoring apparatus;
• pairing the monitoring apparatus with a mobile terminal by establishing a wireless data link connection between the monitoring apparatus and the mobile terminal at a time point later than the present time;
• transferring the latest historical UVI data from the first memory of the monitoring apparatus to a second memory of the mobile terminal hosted by the authenticated user through the wireless data link connection;
• and
• processing the historical UVI data and additional personal information associated with the authenticated user by the mobile terminal.
