To address complicated mechanisms for supplying more torque in one direction and more speed in the other (e.g. catapults with their wind-down and release), AURA created Direction Dependent Gear Selectors. These are an elegant solution that can be implemented directly to a simple gear train to power such mechanisms, with no extra external control needed - all switching is done purely based on the direction! See the attached report for full details.
