Abstract

A vehicle gearshift autonomous control device including a first actuator module, a second actuator module and an electronic control unit, is provided in an add-on manner to retrofit the vehicle transmission with both autonomous and human control gearshift functions. In an autonomous gearshift mode, the electronic control unit executes the vehicle gearshift autonomous control method and receives an autonomous gearshift command to drive the first actuator module to push a shift lever to implement a lateral shift selection, or to drive the second actuator module to spin a spin lever to implement a longitudinal gearshift. For vehicle security, whenever a vehicle gearshift autonomous control device failure or a human control gearshift intervention is detected in the autonomous gearshift mode, the electronic control unit shuts off the autonomous gearshift mode and switches to a human control gearshift mode to perform the human control gearshift function.
