From the company BMW has learned that designers auto giant started to develop Intellectual unique 8-speed transmission. It is assumed that the new automatic transmission will anticipate and adapt to the features of pavement.
The plans Bavarians create a transmission that will engage in a particular situation just the right gear, the principle of the driver head speed manual gearbox.
In terms of road box can adjust with the information coming from the navigation system, ultrasonic cameras, sensors, sensor, used for cruise control. Integrated electronics will have not only provided information on the way, such as the weather, but also information about traffic congestion, topography of the area.
After processing the existing data transmission will automatically switch to the right gear before a turn, choose their own best time to switch gears. For example, one gear may be kept longer if cars have to overcome several turns in a row that will eliminate unnecessary switching, just smart box will include a reduced rate of advance, even before the machine starts to turn or climb the steep slope. Integrated electronics advance calculate the angle of rotation of the future and can thus reconstruct the work of all involved systems.
Being developed new intellectual transmission in conjunction with the company – supplier 8-speed "automatic" (They come with 5, 7 – Series, X3, X5 and X6). Installing "smart" box on a BMW series production is expected in the next 3-4 years.
