| abstract | - Autotransformation is when a toy undergoes a partial or full transformation without external manipulation beyond initial activation. Certain classes of Transformer toys are defined largely by their autotransformation mechanisms. These include the following:
* Jumpstarters
* Battlechargers
* Autorollers
* Flipchangers
* Deployers
* Automorph Technology
* Activators Other toys may include autotransformation as a secondary feature. For example, Armada Optimus Prime's trailer is designed to autotransform when it receives an infrared signal from the manually-transformable cab. Partial autotransformation was a large part of the 2007 movie line, where it was referred to as "Automorph Technology".
