Solving what may be one of the greatest problems to ever face humanity, I modified my car so the windshield wipers sync to the beat of whatever music I’m listening to.
I yearned for a better future. A future in which automotive accessories could feel the rhythm of sweet, sweet music.
Then, I created a provisional patent application (62907689) for this idea, auctioned it on eBay, and donated the money to charities supporting makers at the K-12 and College levels.
The Dancing Wipers project can be found on Gizmodo, ABC, Boing Boing, RaspberryPi, Hackaday, AdaFruit, and a science & technology program on German TV called Galileo.
