Automatic Rain Sensing Vehicle Wiper
Abstract
Driver safety problems are of major relevance in today's automobile business. Lack of vision is commonly the cause of heavy rain accidents. In many circumstances, manual mistakes such as the driver not raising the wiper speed might contribute to an accident. Today's automobile wipers function on the premise of manual switching. In this post, we have presented an automated wiper system with a rain sensor that detects rain and automatically begins and stops when it stops. The automatic wiper system with rain sensor is not only automated but also intelligent. The wiper system automatically detects and initiates precipitation. The wiper system is also clever. When a raindrop strikes the sensor, the sensor assesses the intensity and the wiper speed is automated appropriately. The faster the rotation speed, the bigger the rainfall. No manual involvement is needed to regulate the wiper. This project utilizes an Arduino with a rain sensor, LCD 16x2 module and servomotor. Humidity is monitored through the analog output pin on the rain sensor and the wiper starts to revolve when the humidity threshold is surpassed. The module utilized here is solely based on the LM393 op amp. The information recorded by the rain sensor is forwarded to the Arduino. Based on Atemga8, the Arduino is a microcontroller board Arduino, a platform for creating the behavior of electrical devices, may be used to construct interactive electronic gadgets. In addition, it has a USB connector for interfacing with an external computer. Arduino uses the rain sensor data to analyse and evaluate, and then uses that analysis to drive the servomotor. A 4-bit LCD module located near the driver's seat provides information to the driver regarding the severity of the precipitation and the speed of the wipers. Outside the automobile, the rain sensor is located on the side of the windshield. Connected to the servo motor is a rain sensor. Motorized wiper blades are attached to the servo. The power source in the vehicle is used to power an Arduino, which in turn powers all of the electronics.
