4. Semi-automatic transmission - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semi-automatic_transmission

   These sensors' output, combined with the output from a sensor connected to the gearbox which measures its current speed and gear, is fed into a transmission control unit, electronic control unit, engine control unit, or microprocessor, [19] [20] or another type of electronic control system. This control system then determines the optimal timing ...

5. Torque converter - Wikipedia
