We describe a sensor system for measuring relative distance between sensors of the system, the sensor system comprising at least two sensors, wherein each said sensor comprises an RF transceiver coupled to a microprocessor and stored program code for controlling the microprocessor, wherein said stored program code comprises code to: send, using said RF transceiver a group of one or more data bits from the sensor to a second sensor; receive, using said RF transceiver, an acknowledgement of reception of said group of data bits from said second sensor; determine a time difference between said sending and said receiving; compensate said time difference from a processing delay by the microprocessor of said second sensor between the second sensor receiving said group of data bits and sending said acknowledgement, to determine timing data reprinting distance to said second sensor.
