There appears no reason in principle why a
practical arrangement of speedometer and mileometer should
not consist of an alternator whose rotating element is
either a permanent magnet or an inductor, the fixed
windings being permanently connected to a pair of line
wires which supply a rectifier type instrument for speed
indication, and a small synchronous motor driving a counter
for mile indication.
