Abstract
A human body detecting device for a vehicle includes a sensor electrode provided in a door handle arranged on outside of a vehicle door, the sensor electrode changing the electrostatic capacitance in response to an approach of human body and a determining circuit for judging whether a human body approaches or not based on the change of the electrostatic capacitance of the sensor electrode. The human body detecting device further includes an auxiliary electrode coupled capacitance-wise with the sensor electrode.
