Abstract: An automobile vehicle wiper arm system includes a wiper arm base rotatably connected to a fixed structural member. A wiper arm extension is slidably disposed to the wiper arm base during wiper arm base travel about an arc of travel. A motion link is rotatably connected to the wiper arm extension and is rotatably connected to the fixed structural member. The motion link induces the wiper arm extension to outwardly displace and inwardly displace opposite to the outward displacement during wiper arm base rotation about the arc of travel. A wiper blade is connected to the wiper arm extension and traverses an oval-shaped travel arc along a vehicle windshield by the slidable displacement of the wiper arm extension during wiper arm base rotation. A linkage group connects the wiper arm extension to a wiper motor with rotation of the wiper arm base induced by operation of the wiper motor.

Abstract: Presented are fuel cell systems and control logic for extracting water from system exhaust, methods for making/using such systems, and electric-drive vehicles with aftertreatment systems for extracting water from fuel cell exhaust. An aftertreatment system for a fuel cell stack includes a condensate generator that fluidly connects to the fuel cell stack to receive exhaust output therefrom. The condensate generator includes an evaporator core with a refrigerant line that actively cool the exhaust via controlled circulation of refrigerant fluid. A condensate collector fluidly connected to the condensate generator includes a reservoir housing with a condensate trap that separates entrained water vapor from the cooled exhaust. The reservoir housing collects the separated water vapor as liquid water. A liquid storage container fluidly connected to the condensate collector receives and stores the collected water.

Abstract: Illustrative embodiments disclose systems for sharing, among a group of consumers, data provided by a contributor. Some embodiments are well-suited for real-time distribution of data developing from ongoing incidents, and may be useful, for example, for emergency management. Illustrative embodiments provide a cloud-based system having tenants that are data contributors and data consumers. The system receives, from each contributor, both data and sharing rules that dictate whether and how that data may be shared, and with whom (which consumer or consumers), and then provide data to such consumer or consumers according to the sharing rules.

Abstract: An educational game, requiring for play at least one person and two separate sets of game information, challenges a player to connect the identity of actors via co-roles in motion pictures, or to connect motion pictures via the identity of at least one actor who had a role in each, with information sets appearing randomly so that successful play depends on luck as well as a player's knowledge.
