<p>In an infrared-rays detector, a pyroelectric element detects existence or movement of a human body, and the output signal of the pyroelectric element is converted to a voltage signal. Then, the voltage signal is subjected to waveform analysis. Then, a detection signal is outputted only when a waveform generated by a human body is detected by the waveform analysis. For example, the voltage signal is amplified at two different frequency ranges, and the amplified signals are used for discriminating a signal due to a human body. Then, a noise such as a popcorn noise of the pyroelectric element is prevented to be detected erroneously as generated by a human body. <IMAGE></p> |
