A device manufacturing method includes projecting a patterned beam of radiation onto a substrate, wherein the position of a movable object is determined in a number of degrees of freedom using a number of sensors, the number of sensors being larger than the number of degrees of freedom, wherein the position of the movable object in the number of degrees of freedom is determined using signals of each of the sensors, wherein the signals of the sensors are weighed on the basis of the difference between noise levels of each of the sensors. Accuracy of the position measurement of movable object and/or overlay and focus performance are improved in lithographic apparatus.
