Forward Kinematics
Requires a Wolfram Notebook System
Interact on desktop, mobile and cloud with the free Wolfram Player or other Wolfram Language products.
This is a Demonstration of traditional forward kinematics. In order to get the global position of any particular point, take the dot product of all the matrices up to the frame of the point in question, as well as the local coordinates.
