I really don't see why someone would like such an automatic shifter on a human powered device. In a car you can use an automatic CVT concept to always create the optimal momentum. A motor doesn't get tired.
On a bike you would have to replace one shifter (gear change) by a "fatigue" shifter and a cadence shifter.
