Abstract (en)

A sensing device (300), comprising: an electromagnetic sensor (401) having a surface with at least one electromagnetic radiation interception area (303); and at least one analog signal processor (408) connected to the electromagnetic sensor. The at least one analog signal processor is adapted to: apply a transfer function (403) to an analog signal (409) received from the electromagnetic sensor to produce a resulting signal (406) having a first substantially constant amplitude when the electromagnetic sensor intercepts radiation from a person (301) and a second substantially constant amplitude when the electromagnetic sensor intercepts radiation from a pet animal (302); determine according to a comparison (404) between the resulting signal and a predetermined amplitude threshold (405) whether a movement of a person or a pet is detected; and deliver an output (407) indicative of the determination.
