Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The invention relates to an absolute position measuring device, comprising an optical fiber, an optical strain sensor in optical communication with the optical fiber, and a volume of material deforming under influence of a magnetic field. The optical strain sensor is arranged for sensing deformation of the volume of material. Further, the device is arranged for multi-dimensional position measurement.
