The present invention teaches an antitheft device whereby the detection
accuracy of an unauthorized intruder into a vehicle can be improved,
comprising a section for judging whether or not there is an approaching
object T toward a vehicle M based on information obtained from a surround
monitoring sensor for monitoring the surround of the vehicle M, a section
for judging whether or not the approaching object T toward the vehicle M
is a suspicious person based on information obtained from a motion sensor
for monitoring the periphery and/or the inside of the vehicle M when it
is judged that there is an approaching object T toward the vehicle M, and
a section for conducting processing such as lighting-on of an indicator
when the approaching object T toward the vehicle M is judged to be a
suspicious person.
