ABSTRACT:
A light-emitter emits light, and a plano-convex condenser lens focuses the emitted light and projects the focused light onto a floor near a door to thereby establish a sensing area. A plano-convex light-receiving lens focuses light reflected from the sensing area, and a light-receiver receives the focused, reflected light. The plano-convex lenses have edges closer to the door which is substantially straight.
