Robots performing close physical interaction with humans would require a continuously variable transmission to operate in the region around the peak efficiency or peak power of the driving system. Conventional continuously variable transmission (CVT) has shown advantages in energy-efficient driving systems. However, these CVT designs are heavy and large for robotic applications.
