Which outcome occurs when a robotic arm encoder's output saturates at its voltage limit?

💡 Explanation

Saturated encoder output means lost incremental position data; the PID controller updates use incorrect joint angles because the encoders stop reporting changes. Therefore, position errors accumulate rather than are limited, leading to undefined behaviours, because torque management aims at motor protection not precise position.
