This invention relates to the field of circuit production line technology and discloses an automatic transfer system for integrated circuit production lines, addressing the technical problems of low transfer efficiency and poor space utilization in existing technologies. The system includes: a three-dimensional storage scheduling module located on one side of the production line, used to store wafer cassettes or photomasks and generate material release instructions according to the production cycle; a vertical conveying system located below the storage module, used to transport materials from a first plane where the three-dimensional storage is located to a second plane flush with the cleanroom floor; and a horizontal conveying system located on the second plane, used to receive materials and complete automatic handover with the production equipment. This application enables fully automated transportation of materials from three-dimensional storage to the production equipment without manual intervention, significantly reducing labor costs and improving the automation level of the production line and the utilization rate of storage space.

Aspects of the present invention relate to a control system (400) for controlling an automatic transmission system (204) of a vehicle (1). The automatic transmission system (204) includes at least three drive gears including a first gear having a first gear ratio, a second gear having a second gear ratio lower than the first gear ratio, and an intermediate gear having an intermediate gear ratio between the first and the second gear ratios. The control system (400) is to cause the automatic transmission system (204) to perform a double downshift to disengage the first gear and to engage the second gear, without engaging the intermediate gear. The control system (400) receives a first brake signal indicative of a first brake input to the brake input device at a first time, receives a second brake signal indicative of a second brake input to the brake input device at a second time, determines a rate of change of brake input based on the first and second brake inputs, and compares the rate of change of brake input to a brake rate threshold. A double downshift signal is output to cause the automatic transmission system (204) to perform the double downshift based on the rate of change of brake input exceeding the brake rate threshold. Aspects of the present invention also relate to a system and vehicle (1) comprising the control system (400), a method (500, 700, 800) and computer readable instructions.
