Disclosed are a device and a method for accurately detecting an approach of an object to be detected. Specifically, a measurement unit (210) measures the stray capacitances of first and second sensor electrodes (120, 133), and a determining unit (220) calculates average rates of change of the measured stray capacitances with respect to time during a period having a predetermined time length on the basis of the measured stray capacitances. Subsequently, the determining unit (220) determines whether or not an approach detection condition is satisfied, the condition including a predetermined relationship between the magnitude of a predetermined time rate-of-change with respect to time determined in accordance with a combination of the object to be detected and another object that should be discriminated from the object to be detected and the magnitude of the calculated average rates of change with respect to time. The determining unit (220) determines that the object to be detected has approached when the approach detection condition is satisfied. |
