How Does a Rain Sensor Work?
The rain sensor is typically located near the rear-view mirror on the windshield, with a small section left clear for detection. It operates un the following way
Infrared Light Projection
The sensor emits an infrared beam at a 45-degree angle onto the windshield.
Rain Detection
When the windshield is dry, most infrared light reflects back to the sensor. However, when raindrops land on the glass, they scatter the light, reducing the amount of reflection.
Automatic Wiper Activation
Once the reflected light falls below the sensor’s threshold, the system automatically activates the windshield wipers, ensuring clear visibility without manual intervention.
This smart technology enhances driving safety by responding instantly to weather changes, allowing you to focus on the road.
