Abstract
An electrostatically steerable actuator includes a gimbaled platform. A central portion of a rear side of the platform extends outward from the platform. A diameter of the central portion is substantially smaller than a corresponding diameter of the platform. An array of electrodes faces the rear side of the platform to provide an adjustable electrostatic field for tilting the platform.
