Claim:
1. A sensor system, comprising: a plurality of sensor elements configured to sense different primary measured variables or use different measurement principles; a signal processing device configured to evaluate sensor signals from the sensor elements collectively and to rate the information quality of the sensor signals; wherein the signal processing device provides information about the accuracy of at least one datum of a physical variable; the signal processing device in a form such that the information about the accuracy is described in at least one characteristic quantity; and in that the signal processing device is configured to perform an anticipatory or a predictive calculation of at least one accuracy measure for at least one value of a physical variable, wherein the at least one value of the physical variable and the associated accuracy measure are based on a probable or a predictive presence thereof at or after one or more signal processing steps before one or more of the signal processing steps are performed.
