The present invention relates to a device (20) for detecting a load carrier (30) carried on an underride shuttle (10), comprising a field (22) of sensor units (22a-22e) to be arranged on an outer side of the underride shuttle (10), each of which is configured to detect a respective detection position (40a-40e) of the load carrier (30; 30′) and to output a corresponding sensor bit depending on a presence of a predetermined property at the detection position (40a-40e), a memory unit (26) in which data are stored which produce an allocation of load carrier codes to respective load carrier types; and an evaluation unit (24), which is operatively coupled to the sensor units (22a-22e) and the memory unit (26) and is designed to receive the sensor bits output by the sensor units (22a-22e). to derive the load carrier code from at least a part of the sensor bits and to derive the load carrier type of the currently carried load carrier (30) on the basis of the load carrier code and the data stored in the memory unit (26). Furthermore, the invention relates to an underride shuttle (10) equipped with such a device (20), a system formed from such a underride shuttle (10) and a load carrier (30), and a method for detecting a load carrier (30) carried on an underride shuttle (10) by means of such a device (20) according to the invention.
