Abstract: The invention relates to a device for irradiating an object, in particular human skin, with UV light. Said device comprises a UV light source and an irradiation head containing imaging optics, UV light being projected from the irradiation head onto the object. According to the invention, a position detection unit is provided for the contactless detection of the spatial progression of the region on the surface of the object that is to be irradiated.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for irradiating an object, in particular human skin, with UV light. Said device comprises a UV light source and an irradiation head containing imaging optics, UV light being projected from the irradiation head onto the object. According to the invention, the irradiation head can be adjusted by means of a motor, the UV light source is situated in a separate light source housing outside the irradiation head and at least one flexible fibre optic is located between the light source housing and the irradiation head, said fibre optic being used to feed UV light from the UV light source to the irradiation head.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for irradiating an object, in particular human skin, with UV light. Said device comprises a UV light source and an irradiation head containing imaging optics, UV light being projected from the irradiation head onto the object. A light source that emits visible light is provided in addition to the UV light source, the light from said additional source being projected onto the object by means of the imaging optics of the irradiation head. According to the invention, a preferably electronically controlled unit for the variable adjustment of the light distribution on the object is located in the irradiation head and UV light from the UV light source and/or visible light from the light source emitting visible light can be selectively or simultaneously supplied to said unit.
