A method is provided for detecting at least one object of interest moving in an environment, and implements at least one capacitive coupling measurement electrode with the object of interest and with one or more other “disrupting” objects present in the environment. Included in the method, for at least one of the measurement electrodes, are steps of: (i) measuring the total capacity between the measurement electrode and the environment; (ii) storing the total capacity; (iii) calculating a leakage capacity due to the disrupting objects on the basis of predetermining a minimum value within a history of pre-stored total capacity measurements; (iv) calculating a capacity of interest due to the objects of interest while subtracting the leakage capacity from the total measured capacity; and (v) processing the thus-calculated capacity of interest to produce information for detecting the object or objects of interest. Also included is a device implementing the present method. |
