Cool! This looks a neat little item. I'll bet it's a lot like a bicycle computer,
with eiter a reed switch or an actual contact in the sensor.
Now, for measuring distance or speed, we'll need some indication of the
circumference of the wheel the axle is measuring, right? Time is a no-brainer.
I wonder how that bit of user-interface is done?
