Which calibration error leads to accumulated deviation in end-effector position across many steps in a robotic arm using iterative inverse kinematics?

💡 Explanation

An inaccurate joint position offset causes kinematic transformations to be calculated with incorrect starting points; this is propagated through each iteration of inverse kinematics because offsets accumulate, therefore the joint end-effector position deviates dramatically, rather than other independent error sources.
