An inductive sensor head for detecting ferrous or non-ferrous electrically conducting objects, in particular rebars in a surrounding medium like concrete or a brick wall, comprising at least one field coil with a small axial length compared to its diameter and at least one twin pair of sense coils with a small diameter compared to the diameter of the field coil. The number of turns of wire on the field coil is small relative to the number of turns of wire on the sense coils. The common axis of the sense coils is arranged perpendicular to the axis of the field coil so that there will be no component or a minimum component of maximum flux that is coaxial with the sense coils. A twin pair of coaxially arranged identical field coils is provided that are sequentially excited for giving not only positional but also depths information. In a center plane between the field coils an orthogonal arrangement of two twin pairs of sense coils is provided enabling for a three-dimensional hidden object positioning. The sensor head according to the invention can be automatically calibrated, controlled and read out under control of a microcontroller.
