ABSTRACT:
A sliding door sensor employs two arrays of IR emitters which are pulsed to provide an approach detection zone and a threshold detection zone. Radiation reflected from the detection zones is converted to signals which are processed in microprocessors. The sensor periodically automatically adjusts for changes in background. Both presence and motion detection is provided. The sensor also detects dark objects.
