← TechnologyWhich output characterizes a robot arm’s instability arising from sensor lag?
A)Oscillatory motion near target✓
B)Consistent overshooting of target
C)Unusually slow movement speed
D)Sudden unexpected joint locking
💡 Explanation
Oscillatory motion arises because sensor lag causes the control system to react to outdated position data, applying corrections repeatedly past the target, rather than smoothly reaching it. Over-correction results; therefore oscillations result rather than stable positioning.
