The Adaptation Of The Wiper And How It Has Improved Over Its Lifetime.

Posted by on Thursday, 13 May, 2010

The humble wiper blades has adapted some wide changes throughout its short but eventful lifework. Every time I get into my vehicle and turn on the ignition, I take it altogether for presumed that my windscreen will be clean and free from dross and elements, but it has not always been this way. On hot days I often wind down the windows and take down the roof, on really hot days I set on the air conditioning and really go wild. The antagonistic case, is just as pertinent, I will turn on the heating and about-face on my wiper blades when it rains. Technology is everywhere these days, completely all-embracing in our society yet all too often we take it completely for granted. The common, everyday wiper blades is an exemplar of these sensations, how often have you saved a thought for this marvellous life changing piece of kit. Without it, we would just have to camp at home or stick our hand out of the window and quickly clean the windscreen.

Fortunately, if neither of these two options sounds appealing to you, they also didn’t beguile to the inventors of the wiper blades when they refined this unique new device. The first wipers type was invented by a man named Mr Apjohn as far back as 1903, his invention subsisted of a flat piece of glass with two level aligned brushes moving up and down over its continuum, not conspicuously impressive but it was a step in the right direction at least. It was only later; in 1903 a lady by the name of Mrs Anderson took this to the next admissible step and developed a unthinking swinging arm in order to make the approach more efficient. Even more significantly she developed the alpha rubber replacement wiper blades which was a deal more effective than the twin brushes. It was with this new idea that the replacement wiper blades really began to take off and was soon the standard on all American motor cars by around 1915. The earliest accounts of the wiper blades indicated the user to manually hand crank the wipers through its arc of motion, not very appropriate when driving, later practices would utilise the difference in pressure between the engine and the external to generate a vacuum motor device.

Another annoyance with these primitive designs was that as the engine went faster the wiper blades actually began to move more slowly, these and other problems would later be crushed with the advent of the electric battery. The first cycle of rubber replacement wiper blades suffered greatly from the cold and heat and would degrade quite rapidly in the wet. This gave rise to the conception of replacement wiper blades where by the cars owner could go out and purchase a replacement wiper blades which they could themselves attach to the motor vehicle. It now becoming increasingly average for wiper blades to be fitted with a silicone material, this has numerous assets which make it ideal for its job. It’s slippery and can resist huge changes in air temperature and will not become degraded by exposure to moisture or chemicals.

The 404 Podcast 536: Where we’re suffering from stereo blindness

All week long we’ve been talking about the popularity of 3D technology, both in the home and in the theater, and we’ve finally decided to invite someone on the show to answer our questions on the future of home theater. David Katzmaier, senior editor of TVs and home theater for CNET, joins us on today’s episode to fill us in on the latest developments in the world of 3D TVs and what we can expect to see down the line.

3D TVs were easily the biggest trend at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show, but they’ve only recently started becoming available to consumers. Panasonic announced its first 3D TV bundle at Best Buy earlier this week, but before you run out and drop $2,900, make sure you know exactly what you’re getting into.

For example, David talks to us about the extra hardware you’ll need to purchase along with your 3D TV. Aside from the obvious 3D-compatible television set, you’ll also need a 3D Blu-ray player (unless you have a Sony PS3, which will get a 3D firmware upgrade in June 2010), and a couple sets of 3D glasses, since some companies like Sony won’t include them with the TVs.

David also points out that although the concept of 3D TVs are definitely exciting, it’ll be awhile before enough 3D video games and 3D DVDs come out to justify the high price of the hardware. In the meantime, it’s worth the experience to head out to a theater and view a 3D movie, especially with so many titles coming out this year. “Avatar” and “Alice in Wonderland” in 3D are still in theaters, and with “Titanic” and In “The Beginning” (adaptation of the Genesis story) coming down the pike, there are plenty of opportunities to familiarize yourself with 3D before writing it off or becoming a fanboy.

We tried to answer as many of your 3D TV questions as possible, but don’t stress if we didn’t get to yours–there’s a good chance that CNET’s comprehensive 3D TV FAQ and 3D TV resource guide have your answers. We’ll also have David on the show again soon as more 3D TV news unfolds. Have a great weekend everyone!
