Abstract
A vehicle camera assembly has lens and a curved wiper that is rotatable back-and-forth between a retracted position and a deployed position. The curved wiper directly contacts the lens when the curved wiper is rotated from the retracted position to the deployed position. The curved wiper can move along an arcuate path that mimics a curvature of the lens.
