SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING OPERATION OF VEHICLE WIPERS

A vehicle including a windshield, a sensor unit, a first wiper, a second wiper and a processor is disclosed. The sensor unit may be configured to determine inputs associated with a presence of water on the windshield in a sensor unit's field of view (FOV). The processor may determine a first amount of water added to the windshield in the sensor unit's FOV during a first time duration and a second amount of water added to the windshield in the sensor unit's FOV during a second time duration based on the inputs obtained from the sensor unit. The first and second time durations may be based on the movements of the first and second wipers on the windshield. The processor may further calculate a difference between the first amount and the second amount, and control an operation of the first and second wipers based on the difference.
