← TechnologyWhich sensor error most severely affects precision when computing target angles using inverse kinematics in a multi-jointed robotic arm?
A)Encoder misalignment on the base joint✓
B)Temperature drift in motor controllers
C)Current sensor noise on wrist actuator
D)Proximity sensor offset near links
💡 Explanation
Encoder misalignment on the base joint leads to significant cumulative errors in position calculations because inverse kinematics relies on accurately knowing each joint's angle relative to the base; therefore, large angular errors propagate outward, rather than being localized like errors from distal joints.
