← TechnologyWhich risk increases when robotic arm joint encoders, using incremental quadrature encoding, experience high-frequency vibration while positioning?
A)Cumulative positioning error (drift)✓
B)Thermal runaway in servo motors
C)Electromagnetic interference corruption
D)Encoder wire tensile failure
💡 Explanation
Cumulative positioning error drift appears because vibration introduces spurious pulses and missed counts during quadrature decoding. Therefore, positional feedback becomes inaccurate; rather than absolute encoders, the incremental nature makes it prone drift.
