An angular rotation sensor system constituted of: an input shaft target and an output shaft target each comprising a plurality of members parallel to a longitudinal axis of an input shaft or output shaft; a gear target with an angular velocity exhibiting a predetermined ratio with an angular velocity of the input shaft, the gear target comprising a plurality of members, each extending away from the input shaft and orthogonal to a plane which is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the input shaft; and a control circuitry arranged to: determine an angular position of the input shaft responsive to a sensed angular rotation of the input shaft target and a sensed angular rotation of the gear target; and determine the amount of torque applied to the input shaft responsive to the sensed angular rotation of the input shaft target and a sensed angular rotation of the output shaft target.
