Details
Executive Summary : | The proposal proposes a strain wave gear for power transmission in humanoid robot joints, enhancing flexibility and low backlash. It proposes using differential strain wave gears instead of conventional units, resulting in improved power transmission. The investigation aims to develop two types of differential strain gears with internal and external surfaces, with the latter requiring testing for kinematics and real-time application. |
