Abstract
A thermal image acquisition device () acquires a thermal image of a balcony (). Setting circuitry () sets an outside area () corresponding to an outside of the balcony () and a balcony inside area () corresponding to inside of the balcony () in the thermal image. Heat source detection circuitry () detects a heat source () in the thermal image. Intrusion determination circuitry () determines that 'there is an intrusion' if a central position of the heat source () with the number of pixels and a temperature equal to or greater than thresholds moves from the outside area () to the balcony inside area () in the thermal image. A determination result output device () outputs a determination result of the intrusion determination circuitry ().
