Abstract
Devices and methods for detecting a disinfecting state are described. An example of a sensor device is disclosed to include: a housing; a radiation sensitive material disposed on one or more portions of an external surface of the housing; a sensor configured to measure intensity information associated with ultraviolet (UV) radiation of a first frequency band; a controller configured to record the intensity information, temporal information associated with measuring the intensity information, or both; and a transceiver device configured to transmit and receive radio frequency (RF) signals.

A device comprising:
- a housing;
- a radiation sensitive material disposed on one or more portions of an external surface of the housing;
- a sensor configured to measure intensity information associated with ultraviolet (UV) radiation of a first frequency band;
- a controller configured to record the intensity information, temporal information associated with measuring the intensity information, or both;
- and
- a transceiver device configured to transmit and receive radio frequency (RF) signals.
A method at a device, comprising:
- receiving temporal reference data;
- measuring intensity information associated with ultraviolet (UV) radiation of a first frequency band;
- and
- recording the intensity information, temporal information associated with measuring the intensity information, or both,
- wherein the temporal information comprises a timestamp value synchronized with the temporal reference data.
