Abstract: A capacitive detection system comprising a capacitive sensor having a conductive electrode disposed to generate an electric field in a detection zone when the electrode is subjected to an electric potential, and an electronic control device connected at least to the first electrode. The first electrode of the capacitive sensor is disposed substantially entirely over a conductive screen connected to the control device.
