Which consequence results when a robotic arm, operating near capacity, experiences minor encoder pulse errors?

💡 Explanation

Position calculation in robotic arms relies on encoder feedback, and the accumulation of minor errors due to encoder inaccuracy can create cumulative positional drift because dead reckoning is implemented; therefore, the arm increasingly deviates from its intended trajectory rather than, for instance, experiencing direct torque loss.
