← TechnologyWhich instability arises when excessive derivative gain amplifies measurement noise used within inverse kinematics control of a robotic arm?
A)Uncontrolled, erratic motor oscillations✓
B)Joint position sensor saturation
C)CPU overflow in PLC
D)Actuator thermal runaway
💡 Explanation
Erratic oscillations occur because derivative gain multiplies the encoder's noise during inverse kinematics calculations, leading to rapid and incorrect motor adjustments, therefore motors jitter rather than maintaining stability, even with system damping or position limits.
