    1. Been on many ships, never seen rotary wipers. The circles you see on ship bridge windows are de-icers.

  3. Seen one once at a campground I stayed at. Pretty cool but not my style

  5. Not deicers. Not sure what they are called but they spin fast and fling any water off giving the function of winshield wipers but no wiper. Also used on CNC machines to give a clear view through guards and flying cutting oil.

    1. Clear-View screens. Circular glass "windows (?)", that spin at speed and fling off stuff that would block your view. The real genius is that anything that sticks and impairs your vision is moving quickly, and your vision (your eyes)"averages" the image. More than good enough for bad weather.
