Abstract
A sensor module for being attached to a panel component of a motor vehicle, the sensor module may have a sensor housing, at least one environment sensor disposed at least partially in the sensor housing and configured to send and/or receive electromagnetic signals to thus detect a vehicle environment, and an adjustment kinematics system having a drive configured to move the environment sensor from a retracted position into at least one deployed position. A cover is disposed on the sensor housing in an adjustable manner, and the drive is configured to move the cover from a covering position into at least one open position.
