The sensor has a shatterproof thin film element made of a piezoelectric polymer or a dielectric material for carrying out measurement. Profile elements (120) are located inside a running surface (20) of a tire (100). A dielectric part (14) is provided between two electrodes (15) and connected to a transducer element (12). Two line fields form two unfolded capacitors. An antenna is utilized based on radio frequency identification (RFID) technology. An evaluation electronics unit i.e. microcontroller, evaluates normal static stress and bending moment of the tire. An independent claim is also included for an evaluation element for a tire sensor.
