In line with Prof. Sagar G.M et al. (2020), a rain sensor is a microcontroller and a
driver integrated circuit (IC) are the major components used in the construction and
seamless working of the proposed device. Falling water is quickly and precisely
detected by the rain sensor, which then transmits the signal to the second
component, i.e., the microcontroller, which in turn energizes the driver IC to switch
the required motion of the wipers on using a servo motor. This device converts a

system, an automatic wiper system improves the driving experience and the safety
factors of a vehicle and its drivers. By removing the focus that drivers would have to
devote to controlling a manual system, an automatic wiper system allows the drivers
to focus more on driving safely. Many attempts have been made at constructing an
effective, reliable, and cheap rain detection and wiper control system for vehicles.

Figure 1. Conceptual Framework of the Study (Adopted and modified from De Asis et.al, 2017)
The sensor and the rain-activated motor are both powered by the battery. When it
rains, the wiper motor turns on automatically. In this project, the sensor is mounted
to the vehicle mirror. The sensor detects rain and sends a control signal to the control
unit. The wiper motor is automatically activated by the control unit. This is referred
to as an automatic wiper system. The amount of rainfall detected by the rain sensor
determines the speed of the auto wiper. When it’s raining hard, the wipers will
move quickly. In moderate rain, wipers will move at a medium speed, whereas in
light rain, wipers will move slowly. The motor system is controlled by the
mechanical function.
Planning and design
This study is being conducted by the researchers for all automotive students,
instructors, and car owners who own light vehicles. Since automotive students are
studying electrical systems, they will quickly learn what and how to connect a
sensor to the wiper system. They may be able to perform actualization, familiarize
themselves with the parts, and determine the process of the development wiper
system sensor. In order to teach their students, the instructor will provide
supporting ideas and expertise on how to operate a wiper system sensor using an
Arduino UNO. Car owners will understand how to avoid accidents, especially at
night and during the rainy season. It will help them avoid danger while driving.

According to the study completed by Tashiro & Shimada (2020), the wiper

arms to meet the regulations and prevent collision with the windshield frame.
In this paper, a windshield wiper control that solves the issue is proposed.

controller not only improves safety by reducing distractions, but it also improves
overall comfort. Such an automatic control is available, but it has the limitations of
high cost and low efficiency. In this work, we have proposed an automatic wiper
controller based on a resistive rain sensor that is cost-effective, efficient, and has a
wide range of output. An equivalent electrical and mathematical model of the sensor

rigorously tested on a small segment car (Indica V2) for its performance. It is
observed that, the developed system works satisfactorily under various rain
scenarios.
According to Naresh (December 2015), stated that the automotive industry has
sensing wiper systems have become an even more appealing feature, as they work to
minimize the time the driver must take his/her hands off the wheel. Most traditional
systems offer intermittent as well as variable speed operation. The traditional wiper
system, however, requires the driver's constant attention when adjusting the wiper
speed. Traditional windshield wiper speed constantly varies according to time and
vehicle speed. Because the manual adjustment of the wiper distracts the driver's
attention, which may be a direct cause of an accident, this is a review paper for
automatic wipers in various methods and also explains the basic skeleton for
automatically adjusting the speed of the wiper according to the amount of water on
the windshield, in addition to the removal of moisture inside the car while raining.
The system activates the wiper to operate in fully automatic mode and detect
According to Ucar, et al. (2001). Stated that Automotive windshield wiper systems
have three main components, which are wiper arms, connection mechanism and an
electric motor that drives this mechanism. A windshield wiper motor must be
operated when rainsqualls obscure the driver's sight area. Currently, windshield
wiper motor systems are controlled in two different ways: in the first, the driving of
motor is realized with predetermined constant time intervals using time relays.
Secondly, the wiper motor system can also be controlled by the principle based on
the infrared light reflection from the windshield. In this work, a new system is
designed to drive a wiper motor using sensors that detect the wetness and rainsquall
concentration on the windshield. The sensors are located on the windshield and are
operated based on the feature of the rainsquall's weak electric conductivity. The
experimental results based on a single sensor show the reliability of the system.

that a driver takes their attention off the road to adjust a knob while driving in poor
weather conditions could potentially lead to car accidents. The system uses a
combination of impedance and rain sensor to detect rain and its intensity. The
system contains a controller that takes in the input signals from the sensors and
controls the operation of the windshield wipers based on those input signals the aim
of this project is to help reduce accidents that happen as a result of the driver
intending to clean the windscreen when rain is falling thereby taking the attention of
the driver off the road when he or she is switching on and off the wiper. In rainy
days we suffer from the act of sprinkling of water on the front glass of our wheeler.
While driving, when drivers cannot see visibly on-road vehicles they try operating
the wiper on glass manually, at times switching on and off intermittently and this
distraction might cause vehicle accident. If we apply any kind of sensor on glass
which senses the act of sprinkling water, by automation, the wiper will be operating
automatically. When the water hit the sensor, it will send a signal to the system thus
triggering the wiper motor. Once the sensor does not detect any water, the wiper
will stop. This will reduce the human interface that has been stated earlier. An
addition to this invention is that the wiper automatically pushes up from the

The median is known as a measure of location; that is, it tells us where the data is. As
stated in the article, we do not need to know all the exact values to calculate the
median; if we made the smallest value even smaller or the largest value even larger,
it would not change the value of the median. Thus, the median does not use all the
information in the data, and so it can be shown to be less efficient than the mean or
average, which does use all the values in the data. To calculate the mean, we add up
the observed values and divide them by the number of them. The total of the values
