Which failure occurs in a robotic arm when its encoder pulses are sporadically dropped?

💡 Explanation

Position errors accumulate over time due to *dead reckoning*, because the control loop relies on encoder feedback to determine the arm's position; therefore, the position is increasingly wrong, rather than producing an instantaneous instability or motor resonance unless persistent.
