Abstract
The invention relates to a sensor (1) for detecting a linear or rotative displacement of an object. According to the invention, a sensor element (2) can be fastened to the object or forms part of the object, said element interacting with at least one detection element (3). The sensor is characterised in that two detection elements (6, 7) are located on one displacement plane adjacent to a magnet (4) that generates a magnetic field and that the sensor element (2′) consists of a material that influences the magnetic field.
