Abstract

A sensor device is disclosed. In an embodiment, the sensor device includes a carrier having a plane carrier surface, a plurality of photodetectors arranged on the carrier surface, each photodetector including a photosensitive sensor area and a lens arrangement arranged opposite the sensor areas, wherein the lens arrangement includes an optical axis, wherein the lens arrangement is configured to image electromagnetic radiation onto the sensor areas, wherein the plurality of photodetectors comprise at least one first photodetector having a first sensor area, the first sensor area comprises at least one property which differs from a property of a second sensor area of a second photodetector of the plurality of photodetectors, and wherein the second photodetector is arranged closer to the optical axis than the at least one first photodetector in order to reduce an optical imaging aberration of the lens arrangement.
