FIELD: vehicles.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a heated wiper system for mounting on the wiper arms of a vehicle wiper assembly. System comprises a wiper blade including a resilient wiper element having a passage along the wiper element from an opening at one end of where a heating element is inserted into the passage. Temperature of the heating element is controlled by controlling the power/current supplied to the heating element. Power and/or current is controlled by a control unit, having an algorithm for determining the required current in which a resistance sensor is used to determine the resistance of the heating element, so that the control unit responds to the resistance value of the installed heating element and uses this resistance value to calculate the required power and/or the required current.
EFFECT: enabling to control the temperature of the heating element using smart wiper technology of a wiper blade installed in the wiper itself.
