This manuscript investigates research done in the field of harmonic drives. A brief synopsis of papers dealing with material analysis, optimized design parameters for harmonic drive are presented. Another research work investigating the use of harmonic drives for space applications is discussed at length. Lastly, a work discussing optimized flex spline design, interference study and micro harmonic drive design is also put forward in this manuscript.
