Methods and systems for a transmission shift assembly

A transmission for a vehicle, comprising:

• a first barrel cam including a first cam track;
• a second barrel cam arranged coaxially with the first barrel cam and including a second cam track;
• a first motor configured to drive the first barrel cam;
• a second motor configured to drive the second barrel cam independent of the first barrel cam;
• a first shift fork including a first following pin seated within the first cam track;
• a second shift fork including a second following pin seated within the second cam track;
• a transmission input shaft including a first gear, a second gear, and a third gear;
• and
• a controller with computer readable instructions stored on non-transitory memory that when executed, cause the controller to:
• responsive to a first command, energize the first motor to adjust a rotational position of the first barrel cam from a first position to a second position, thereby moving the first following pin and shifting a lateral position of the first shift fork to disengage the first gear and engage the second gear;
• and
• responsive to a second command, energize the second motor to adjust a rotational position of the second barrel cam to a third position, thereby moving the second following pin and shifting a lateral position of the second shift fork to engage the third gear.
