MANUAL TRANSMISSION CONVERTED TO AUTOMATIC

A description is given of the development of a control system which converts a standard truck transmission to fully-automatic operation without need for a clutch pedal or conventional gearshift lever. The reasons why the researchers chose to automate a manual transmission with existing hardware are listed. A diagram showing how the clutch assembly is used with the automated system is presented.
