Which kinematic limitation arises when a robotic arm’s joint angles cannot achieve a desired end-effector pose?

💡 Explanation

A singularity results because certain joint configurations prevent independent end-effector movements, thus limiting achievable poses. Therefore configurations become unreachable, rather than resolution affecting incremental positioning or timing impacting instruction executions.
