Publication number: 20070153812Abstract: A network service is made available on a device capable of operating on a first network that is coupled to a second network via a Network Address Translator (NAT). One or more User Datagram Protocol (UDP) messages with an entity of the second network. Based on the exchange of UDP messages, an IP address and port used by the NAT on the second network is determined for purposes of accessing the device on the first network via the second network. The IP address and port are registered with a discovery service of the second network. Network services are requested from the device via the second network using the IP address and port obtained via the discovery service. In one arrangement, the exchange of UDP messages involves the use of Simple Traversal of UDP Through NATs (STUN) messages.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 29, 2005Publication date: July 5, 2007Inventor: John Kemp

Patent number: 6446301Abstract: A laterally movable wiper arm assembly cleans curved interior surfaces of automobile and truck windshields. The wiper blade is movable on two curved tracks; one at the top of the windshield and one at the bottom of the windshield, with a vertically oriented telescoping wiper blade movable laterally therebetween. The telescoping arm support permits the vertical blade to tilt into the corners at the bottom of the windshield, to cover a larger proportion of the area, since the bottom of a windshield is longer than the top. The blade or wiping pad is supported with a resilient foam layer attached to a flexible substrate, which is adjustably attached to a rigid support arm following the windshield contour.Type: GrantFiled: April 25, 2000Date of Patent: September 10, 2002Inventor: John Kemp
