First off you need a "shared timer/clock" between the two systems in
order to have a chance to determine what actually happens here.  Good
luck with that!  :)

Also, there's been tons of research in this area over the years, please
look into that, odds are these problems have been solved already.  I
know of several commercial devices that already handle this just fine.

best of luck!
