Taking a very detailed look at wiper motors, and how to use them in your own projects. I have been using them for my Acrobots, and Werner van der Zwan has been using them for this kinematic sculptures.

It helps me a lot if you subscribe, and you'll also get more DIY and robotics content :)

Werner and I met at V2_ Lab for Unstable Media in Rotterdam, which supports Werner's Unconventional Self and my Acrobot, two projects which use wiper motors!
