We have developed an inertia-driven micro actuator for harsh environment of space. Different from the conventional PZT-driven or other actuators, the newly developed electrostatic mechanism is free from the material property change due to temperature. A mass suspended in the actuation system is designed to collide with the internal wall to give thrust by the impact-type inchworm mechanism.
