Abstract
The present disclosure describes methods, systems, apparatuses, and devices for facilitating actuating robots and automatic machines. Specifically, the present invention provides a capstan actuator with composite control coil. Further, the disclosed system may allow for multi-jointed robots, or other multiple degrees of freedom machines, to be constructed in a novel manner that allows for a single prime mover to supply motive power to many other degrees of freedom with very good control fidelity.
