A laser radar sensor includes a photoreceptor, a dummy circuit, an amplifier, a selector, and the first and the second detection circuits. A photoreception signal outputted from the photoreceptor and an output signal of the dummy circuit are amplified by the amplifier, and inputted to the second detection circuit. A noise component included in the photoreception signal based on the output signal of the dummy circuit when distance detection is not performed. The distance detection is performed based on the reception signal from which the noise component is removed. As a result, a reduction in detectable distance of the laser radar sensor is less likely to occur. Furthermore, the noise component is detected using the dummy circuit and the selector. Thus, the consideration of the predetermined rotation angle is not required in optical system design and limiting factors in the optical system design can be reduced. |
