A sensor system having at least two phase tracks spaced apart in the axial direction of a rotation axis of a rotating body and situated circumferentially around it, having at least one sensor element for each phase track situated fixed in place opposite the rotating body to detect the particular phase track. At least one first sensor element assigned to a first phase track, with at least one second sensor element assigned to the first phase track, is connected to at least one first sensor element bridge, extending parallel to the first phase track and perpendicularly to the rotation axis of the rotating body, and at least one sensor element assigned to a second phase track, with at least one sensor element assigned to the first phase track, is connected to at least one second sensor element bridge extending perpendicularly to the two phase tracks and parallel to the axis.
