Abstract

Every year automotive safety organization report that the life of drivers is very important today. Accident happen in car most probably due to lack of focus by the driver during heavy rainfall. Minor errors which contributed by the visibility of the car may cause accident. Most of the car wipers today’s implement with wiper function manually. In this project, an automatic rain sensing wiper system has been implemented so that it can sense rain and wipe automatically and stops when no more rain. This project construct using Arduino Uno represent microcontroller ATmega 328P that detect rain water smartly and switch on wiper. Automatic Wiper System typically used in luxury cars where wind shield wiper automatically gets activated when there is Rain or if there is some water on the windshield. Electronic Wiper is very common device in 2021 that is attached in nearly every modern car to wipe the water on the wind shield during the rain. But generally, they are manually operated, and we need to switch them ON manually. First the project is being design using Proteus. Second step is implementing the circuit on a breadboard and the last step is connect the circuit with rain sensor and clad board, test and run. When raining and rain drops on wind shield, the sensor will trigger to transmit the signal to the Arduino. After that Arduino will filter the information and optimize the servo motor to switch on the wiper. Throughout these implementations the wind shield will cleaned automatically with less effort.
