A sensor for monitoring a zone with regard to the presence of at least one object includes a transmission device, a reception device and an evaluation device. The transmission device emits transmission signals into the zone to be monitored. The reception device receives detection signals that include those transmission signals that are reflected or remitted in the zone to be monitored. The evaluation device is configured to determine at least one measurement variable based on the detection signals related to at least one dimension of an object in the zone to be monitored, to determine and output an occupied state of the zone to be monitored if the at least one measurement variable is greater than an entry threshold value, and to determine and output a free state of the zone to be monitored if the at least one measurement variable is smaller than an exit threshold value.
