A sensor apparatus is provided for sensing relative position of two objects. First and second molecular components, each comprising at least one electronic system, are connected to respective objects. The molecular components are arranged in mutual proximity such that an interaction between the electronic systems of respective components varies with relative position of the objects, the interaction affecting an electrical or optical property of the components. A detector detects the property to produce an output dependent on relative position of the objects.
