Those are pretty trick actually. Have you really looked at the mechanics
of a Mercedes mono wiper? It doesn't wipe an arch across the windshield
but rather,  is articulated to wipe from the passenger lower side
(parked) up to the corner where it then drops down to accommodate the top
center of the windshield. Then it moves back up to reach the drivers
corner of the windshield. I want one! Ive been thinking about this for
years now. Just haven't put ideas on the car.
