1. A method of detecting a presence or traverse of a living human, comprising:
- (a) monitoring spatial dynamics of a polarized entity including tissue, organs and a living body of the living human;
(b) filtering extraneous ambient electromagnetic background noise;
(c) detecting and quantifying amplitude changes in volts per meter per second or current; and
(d) outputting voltage or current amplitude signals,wherein steps (a) and (b) are practiced by connecting a current amplifier having a low frequency voltage spectral density curve to dielectric materials which are proximate to or in contact with the living human or in contact with intervening dielectric materials proximate to or in direct contact with the living human.

Abstract
A low input current amplifier has a voltage spectral density curve to operate at 50 Hz or less and is connected to dielectric materials to receive a signal irrespective of ground reference. The amplifier outputs a first output. A multi-stage amplifier includes a stage connected in series with the low input current amplifier to amplify the first signal to distinguish the incidence, traverse and physiological condition of a living human. The resulting signal is then processed by an algorithm and displayed as human specific motion, heart rate and respiratory rate.
