Skin Cancer in the U.S.

Making ultraviolet rays visible.
Umbra’s sun sensitive pattern is a gentle reminder to be aware of ultraviolet light so you can protect yourself from the sun’s harmful rays.
The pattern becomes opaque and visible when exposed to ultraviolet light. This even works well during a cloudy day when the UV index is high. This visualizes the danger that the user might otherwise be completely unaware of.
