Which consequence results when a hexapod robot encoder malfunctions during gait planning?

A)Joint position feedback loss
B)Kinematic chain rigidification
C)Actuator thermal runaway onset
D)Power supply current limiting

💡 Explanation

Loss of encoder signal causes joint angle position estimation to vanish, because the controller uses the encoder for closed-loop feedback; therefore, the robot cannot correctly position its legs, rather than executing pre-programmed movements accurately based on inverse kinematics.
