Abstract
A method for producing a sensor device () for the measurement of an instantaneous load on a component (), in which the component () is made of plastic, in which a sensor layer () is arranged in the component (). The sensor layer () is formed of a carrier material with electrically conductive particles embedded therein. To be able to measure or determine loads and/or forces in the component () in a better an/or more reliable way, the method includes forming at least one blind hole-like recess () in the component () to receive the sensor layer ().
