Path Sensor

A path sensor comprises an optical waveguide (40) with a core and a sheath which is at least partly transparent to light at a first end (42) of the optical waveguide (40) and so surrounding light (30) enters the core. A sensor element (20) is attached to a second end of the optical waveguide (40). Moreover, provision is made for a sleeve (10) which at least partly surrounds the first end of the optical waveguide (40) and can be displaced along the first end, wherein a position of the sleeve (10) can be determined as a function of radiation emitted into the sensor element (20) at the second end of the optical waveguide (40).
