Robert Kearns obtained a degree in engineering from the University of Detroit and a doctorate from Case Western Reserve University. He was a former student and professor at Wayne State University. In 1967, Kearns received a patent for his windshield wiper design, which paused between swipes. He spent much of his adult life embroiled in lawsuits against the automobile companies that used his invention without his consent. He won millions of dollars from Ford Motor Company and Chrysler for patent infringement.The Auto Channel: Robert Kearns, Inventor...
