We develop a wiper device for underwater monitoring sensor nodes. Coral images are gathered by the sensor nodes, but a camera view of the sensor node is interfered by attached algae. Therefore, attached algae are removed by the wiper device. In this paper, we conducted an experiment to confirm the wiper function in the long term operation.
