The input process of a windshield wiper begins when the driver activates the wiper system, typically through a switch or lever on the steering column. This action sends an electrical signal to the wiper motor, which engages and starts moving the wiper blades across the windshield.

As the wipers sweep, they clear away rain, snow, or debris, enhancing visibility for safe driving.
