You realize that this is not a "zero-sum game", right? It's highly likely that the person tuning the sensitivity of the auto-wipers; the person in charge of determining whether or not that bunch of pixels is an elk and if so whether it's prancing laneward; and the person in charge of regression-testing emissions mode for each new release are likely to be three distinct persons.everyone is busy working on this FSD *sugar*.

I thought you wanted an auto-wiper sensitivity setting? But either way, I don't work at Tesla, so I'll have to decline. I would if I could, but I can't so I won't.then give me v11 gui plz.
Every time i watch Falcon 9 boosters land on an autonomous ship at sea, i wonder aloud, why can't some of that tech get to Tesla...
It's all camera based. i don't think the "effort" the wipers (wiper motor) are exerting are part of the algorithm.
All in all the auto wipers suck. end of story. period.
Just today: light drizzle, wipers go like mad when 1st turning the car on and before moving. So, sitting still for 2 minutes, well enough to clear the windshield, they are going crazy and wiping. AS SOON AS I START DRIVING (you know...when i'd REALLY need the windshield to be clear), they slow to a dangerous amount of down time or quit completely. while in motion. it's such a fail. even worse when dark out.

It is still a pile of arse. Ridiculous when a Bosch rain sensor is flawless more or less and significantly less than the cost of the dev time on this sheiB show..
You have to train the wipers. There was an update a year or so ago that added learning to the auto wiper function. Don't just hit the stalk button every time. It's a PITA for a few days, but then they work pretty well. If the auto function gets it wrong, set the wipers where you want them, and then back to auto after a minute. You may have to go back to manual a couple of times and then back to auto. After you do this a few times in different conditions, they should react how you would. Mine are absolutely great. Every couple of months I have to adjust manually once or twice. When I got FSD Beta, it seems like it wiped out all the learning the wipers had, as I had to retrain.
The trick is to continue going back to manual for a bit and then back to auto. After a few times Auto will match the speed you were setting manually. This is all assuming that the rain conditions remain the same. Once you get Auto to set the speed you want in that condition, Auto should always set that speed in that rain condition.
The following is just my guess, and this is only a guess based on my observations. Auto mode has a certain level of drop formation for each of the four speeds. As soon as enough drops form in a set time, Auto will ratchet up to the next setting. It also has a level where it will ratchet down and the two are not necessarily the same. So you may need to train each of the four wiper speeds, although it does seem to interpolate pretty well once you've trained enough data points. In a very light rain, it may take a while to reach the level where you want the wipers to engage. The easy thing to do is to hit the button on the end of the stalk, but that doesn't seem to train Auto mode. I think it sees the button press as something abnormal and outside of Auto's scope. So, annoying as it is, hit the wiper icon and bring up wiper control and then set the lowest setting. Then switch it to auto. In a very light rain, you may need to train it to turn off as well so as to get a more intermittent pattern. So wiper Icon, Off, wait, Auto. Like I said, this is all a guess. But it's what I've done and my Auto wipers pretty much do exactly what I want now. Maybe not exactly what I would do, but close enough that the difference really doesn't matter.
Laughs in VAG group. They seem to manage fine. Look at the scale of them. Its just a superior, better product of a sensor. It is... lunacy to think that purely computer vision is the sole answer.The part is cheap on ONE car. It's damn expensive across millions of cars.
If Tesla gets this right they save that part on all the TENS of millions of cars to be built in the future too.
The best part is no part.
