Abstract
A presence detection system () configured to detect a presence of a window () or a mirror () is disclosed. The system comprises a time-of-flight sensor () configured to detect a proximity to a target () based on reflected radiation sensed from a plurality of zones (-). The system also discloses processing circuitry () configured to determine a presence of a mirror or window in a path from the time-of-flight sensor to the target based on one or more peaks in data corresponding to the sensed radiation reflected from each of the plurality of zones. A corresponding method of detecting a presence of a window or a mirror using the disclosed system is also disclosed.
