There are at least some sunscreens with ingredients (such as titanium dioxide) which will help reflect some UV light. I suspect it is the combination of absorbing molecules and reflective materials which will make up a better sunscreen.
Somebody should build a 'UV mirror' so I can avoid 'missing a spot' when applying sunscreen. Any way to apply a UV filter to the front-facing camera on a cell phone?
I suspect many cell phone cameras do have a UV filter, however it would be filtering out the UV. If UV does make it to the sensor then you could do the filtering and band shifting in software.
