Abstract: A contrast sensor for evaluating identification markings and a method of evaluating identification markings on detecting objects using a contrast sensor, having at least one light transmitter and at least one light receiver, with the light receiver having a single photodiode; having a control and evaluation unit for evaluating the light receiver signal of the light receiver, and having an output for a sensor signal that is formed by the control and evaluation unit on the basis of the light receiver signal, wherein the identification marking has lettering or a marking; an elongate illumination field is projected by the light transmitter onto a region of the identification marking narrow in the direction of movement; and the control and evaluation unit compares a reception signal sequence having a plurality of contrast transitions with a stored reception signal sequence and outputs the sensor signal in dependence on the comparison.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system for simulating sensors that in particular measure a distance between the sensor and an object, that measure geometrical dimensions of the object, that measure positions of the object, that measure material, contrast, color, luminescence, brightness or transparency of the object, that measure polarization of the light reflected by the object or that measure a magnetic field strength.
