Recent trends in robotic actuation have highlighted the need for low cost, high performance, and efficient gearing. We present an experimental study comparing pinwheel and non-pinwheel designs of cycloidal gearing. The open source designs are 3D-printable, combined with off-the-shelf components, achieving a high performance-to-cost ratio. Extensive experimental data is presented, that compares two...
