A measurement system for determining acceleration and a position of an object. The measurement system includes a first sensor system for determining an acceleration of an object, the first sensor having a body with an electrically conducting measuring structure, a device for generating a first magnetic field, which acts on the measuring structure and a detector for detecting a second magnetic field or field changes, which are created by eddy currents generated by the measuring structure, the detector generating an output signal. A second sensor system for determining a position of the object, the second sensor system includes a scale graduation that lies opposite the detector and is scanned by the detector in a scanning area in which the measuring structure and the scale graduation are arranged placed on top of each other, or integrated into each other, and wherein the detector generates an acceleration signal and a position signal from a common scanning area. The measuring structure and the scale graduation are formed on a common body.
