Definitions for "Inverse Kinematics"
a technique for creating models of mechanical linkages of connected parts, such that motion is transmitted in a predictable way through the parts.
A procedure which determines where the end-effector needs to be placed to reach a particular point in space.The procedures use mathematical algorithms along with sensors to determine the desired location of the point in space.
The inverse kinematics problem is to find the robot's joint displacements given position and orientation constraints on the robot's end-effector.
