What cars (if any) on the market have automatic sensory windshield wipers?

I'm wondering about the kind that the car automatically adjusts the rate or speed of according to how much rain is hitting the windshield. What makes/models have such a feature?

Update:

Vortexxse7en, I'm asking for informational purposes, not because I want a car with this feature. And I can think of reasons other than laziness or stupidity to have such a feature on a car: high-performance driving situations or as an aid to a handicapped driver, for instance. Thanks for your response.

    im not sure which cars have it, but the reason cars would have it, is because theres people out there who are either A) to lazy to adjust this themselves, or B) to dumb to adjust it themselves, i mean im all for cars having nice features and all, but if youre to lazy to adjust that type of thing yourself, you shouldnt be on the road. Im not saying you are, im just saying thats the reason that feature would exist, but as far as the sensor that would cause that, would probably be a sensor that measures the amount of water it recieves in a certain amount of time, or something along those lines
