Motion Feedback Paddle Shifter

Motion Feedback Paddle Shifter
It becomes possible to make existing manual mission to 2 pedals paddle shift.
Looking ahead to the future, it is arranged for responding up to 8 speed.
It is possible to mount on every kind of shift patterns of manual mission.
As the shift/select/clutch is activated in accordance with the operating volume of paddle,
the driver can control shift speed control/clutch at hand(paddle).
Different from existing paddle shift,clutch control can be made at the part of paddle shift.
Gear skipping (step jump) shift is possible.
As it is possible to control the existing clutch automatically,
the driver is freed from clutch operation from starting to stopping and relieved of the burden.,
Equipped with 2 modes of circuit mode and town mode,it can respond to driving from circuit drive to public road drive.
Different from twin clutch paddle shift represented in DSG etc.,
as the dedicated mission is not need, it becomes possible to greatly restrain initial (development) invenstment amount.
All processes from designing, development, manufacturing and testing are conducted in an integrated manner within the company.

IKEYA PADDLE SHIFT TRANSMISSION
Sports Gear Shifting / Economic Motoring / Driving Pleasure....

Why steering-centered performance?

-“IKEYA PADDLE SHIFT” system has the task of adjusting the transmissionas a function of the driver's requirements, the system's operation state,the vehicle's driving conditions and the driver's style of performing the clutch operations and gear shift operations under all conditions.

-To determine the operating conditions and the driver's style of driving. The transmission management uses the electronic circuitry available in the vehicle (data from an engine management) and additional seasons.

-The driver's controls can be performed on the steering wheel (Paddles and several push-buttons)and the acceleration pedal etc… “Driving comfort and convenience” are achieved its true meaning when (Paddles and several push-buttons)with having to press the clutch pedal and can engage the required gear by the operation of the paddles,push-buttons etc. with gear shifting feel on the paddles in course of shifting up & down.
