Remember to gear down so the axel sets off the sensor say x times per wheel
rotation. You should not lose any precision unless you have a poor tapping
mechanism. However, you will only have accuracy as good as the touch sensor can
go on/off. Going too fast may cause you to lose taps and some precision.
