It measured the length of the path by counting the number of rotations of the wheel. Later, the counter was improved and completed with a reducer that reduced the number of the wheel’s revolutions depending on the measuring system (miles, leagues, kilometres) and showed reduced data on the display.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUsage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese days, counters are used to count the number of passengers, visitors of different events, cars passing through certain check point, sets and scores in sport, items on a production line, etc.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Counter is developed to serve as a learning tool rather than a puzzle.\u003cbr\u003eJust like the rest of Ugears collections, putting STEM-lab models together is fun and comprehensive: everything you need to build, learn, and discover comes in a box.
