SMART WIPER SYSTEM

A windshield wiper system includes a wiper arm, a wiper blade attached to the wiper arm, an output shaft attached to an end of the wiper arm, an actuator attached to the output shaft, a controller, a first sensor, a second sensor, and a third sensor. The controller is configured to activate the actuator, causing the output shaft to rotate and thus driving the wiper arm with the attached wiper blade in a sweeping motion across a windshield. The controller is also configured to receive signals from the first, second, and third sensors indicating the position of the wiper arm and the wiper blade.
