Abstract

A sensor device for measuring a rotational position of an element that is rotatable about an axis of rotation includes a sender member emitting a magnetic field and a plurality of receiving members receiving the magnetic field. Each of the receiving members has a pair of conductors that together delimit a pair of surrounded areas. Each of the surrounded areas tapers in and against a circumferential direction at ends of the surrounded areas.
