Abstract This study investigates the efficiency of three different windshield wiper types—Flat, Beam, and Aero—by assessing their performance in clearing a given area. Windshield wipers are necessary for maintaining visibility, however differences in design may influence their effectiveness. To test this, the number of wipes required for each wiper type to remove water until at least 80% of the windshield area was visibly free of water was recorded and analyzed. The average w
