A device for measuring the length of a path ,
consisting of a wheel of known circumference attached to a rod held in the hand ,
and pushed along a surface ,
which is usually the ground or a floor .
The number of times the wheel makes a complete circle multiplied by the circumference is a measure of the length of the path traversed .
It may be used to measure distances on curved as well as straight paths .
A variant which registers the miles and rods traversed is sometimes used by surveyors .
