← TechnologyWhich consequence results when a hexapod robot encoder malfunctions during gait planning?
A)Joint position feedback loss✓
B)Kinematic chain rigidification
C)Actuator thermal runaway onset
D)Power supply current limiting
💡 Explanation
Loss of encoder signal causes joint angle position estimation to vanish, because the controller uses the encoder for closed-loop feedback; therefore, the robot cannot correctly position its legs, rather than executing pre-programmed movements accurately based on inverse kinematics.
