  • Patent number: 10582900
    Abstract: An object approach detection apparatus (ACU) includes an input interface (IN) for receiving a response signal from a proximity sensor (PSj) measured relative to a first base-value of said at least one sensor. A filter module (FM) is configured to filter said response signal to produce a filtered response signal. A proximity event declarator (PED) is configured to declare a proximity event has occurred if the filtered response signal fulfils a first condition, in particular crosses a first threshold. A base value adaptor (BVA) is configured to choose a new base value in response of the declaring that the proximity event has occurred.
