Abstract:
A motion sensor has at least two tiers of monitored volumes that are offset from each other. Electromagnetic radiation, such as infrared light, is directed from the monitored volumes onto at least two sets of detector elements having separate outputs on a pyroelectric substrate of an infrared detector. As a warm object, such as a human or an animal, moves through the monitored volumes, the warmth from the object causes the voltage on the outputs of the infrared detector to change. The resultant waveforms are compared and if the two waveforms have a phase relationship corresponding to a critical phase angle that is based on the pitch of the monitored volumes and the offset between the tiers of monitored volumes, an animal-immune motion indication is generated.

Claim (Index 19):
The motion sensor of  claim 16 , wherein the second set of detector elements are positioned without a significant offset from the first set of detector elements in a first detector direction on a pyroelectric substrate, and the second set of detector elements are positioned at an offset from the first set of detector elements in a second detector direction on the pyroelectric substrate that is orthogonal to the first detector direction; and\n wherein the optical system comprises:\n a first set of optical elements to direct the electromagnetic energy from the first set of monitored volumes on the first set of detector elements onto a first path having a first geometry; and \n a second set of optical elements to direct the electromagnetic energy from the second set of monitored volumes on the second set of detector elements onto a second path having a second geometry that is different than the first geometry.
