I am developing this technologyMcLaren AutomotiveIs a prestigious team of F1 Grand Prix "McLaren F1 Team"It is considered to be installed in the company's new model which is scheduled to be on sale in 2015. McLaren closely talks about the details of the system, but it is said that the technology that is practically applied at the military level is used for the base. It is thought that it is not a kind of special coating of water repellent processing but a mechanism to vibrate glass attached with ultrasonic generator at high speed of 30,000 times per second, and to repel moisture and dirt such as rain.

First of all, installing this system seems to be the company's high performance car which reaches tens of millions of yen to over 100 million yen, but ultimately the system price will be about 10 pounds (about 1600 yen) It seems that it is supposed to be able to suppress it to vehicles for general purpose, and it seems to be able to be mounted on vehicles for general purpose. The rubber type wiper invented in 1903 started spreading at a stretch from the time the patent expired in 1920, and now it is indispensable for the safety of the car. Although it is a mechanism of a wiper that has been used for a long time without changing for over 100 years, it may be time for a new dimension technology to be put into practical use.
