ABSTRACT:
To provide a monitoring device which can detect conditions of a sleeping person reliably and which is simple. A monitoring device comprising: multiple independent distance sensors11installed facing different positions in a monitored target area50to be monitored for measuring a distance to a monitored target2,a calculating unit22for calculating changes over time in the outputs of the distance sensors11,and a detection processor23for detecting changes in shape of the monitored target2based on the calculated changes over time in one or multiple distance sensor11among the multiple distance sensors11.
