Mechanical odometers have been counting the miles for centuries. Although they are a dying breed, they are incredibly cool because they are so simple!
A mechanical odometer is nothing more than a gear train with incredible gear ratios (in the order of 1700 : 1 and thereabouts). That means the input shaft of the odometer has to spin around 1700 times before the odometer spins once and registers one mile.
Odometers like this are a dying breed. They are being replaced by digital odometers that provide more features and cost less, but they aren't nearly as cool. Here, we'll take a look inside a mechanical odometer, and then we'll see how digital odometers work.
