Abstract

A sensor device comprises an optical unit for a motor vehicle, designed to be fixed on a vehicle window. Said device is characterized in that the optical unit has at least one lens system, wherein the lens system has a lens carrier comprising at least one lens, and the lens carrier and the lens consist of the same material and are constructed as a single part.
