Abstract
A sensor device, active brake booster, and method for a braking system, including an active brake booster for carrying out/boosting an autonomous or partially autonomous brake pressure buildup, including an electronic device, which, at least during the autonomous or partially autonomous brake pressure buildup by the active brake booster, is configured, based on at least one deformation variable, provided externally or established by the sensor device, as to a deformation of the active brake booster, and/or a tensile force which effectuates the deformation and is exerted on a brake pedal, to output at least one activation signal to a warning display device and/or to a warning sound output device and/or at least one control signal to the active brake booster, to control the latter at least for a predefined first time interval into a safety mode or to interrupt the latter at least for a predefined second time interval.
