Screen Wiper

A wiper phone add-on that cleans the phone screen.

(Collaborated with Cassidy Chen)

"Screen Wiper" is an innovative device designed to keep your phone screen clear and functional, even in wet conditions. Inspired by car windshield wipers, this compact tool solves the common problem of water droplets blurring and disrupting touch functionality on phone screens. Much like how car windows rely on wipers to maintain visibility during rain, the phone screen is a vital "window" to the digital world. Wet screens become difficult to see and prone to accidental touches, and "Screen Wiper" addresses this by mimicking the mechanics of car wipers to effectively sweep away water.

The device operates on a circular wiper mechanism, driven by a mini motor powered directly by the phone. Its compact and efficient design ensures that the wiper can continuously remove water droplets from the screen surface without obstructing usability.

Ideation

Phone wipers

  • A device that prevents the phone screen from getting covered with water / being accidentally touched by water droplets.

  • Inspired by the car wipers: car windows are essential when driving because you need to check the road situations through the window, and when you drive in the rain, you need to open the wipers to clear out the raindrops. So as the phone screen. Everything you see from the phone you see through the screen, and if the screen gets wet, it can be blurred and even got accidentally touched by the water droplets. We also need something like the car wipers to clear out water on our phone screen, especially when we want to use our phone while taking a shower.

  • Mechanism: Work as the car wipers. Circular mechanism. Powered by the phone, driven by a mini motor.
