Spatial kinematics describes the motion of objects in 3D space, unlike basic kinematics which studies movement along straight lines. Scientists and engineers use multiple fixed points to measure an object’s full range of motion and decompose it into one-dimensional motion. Spatial kinematics is important in robotics and prosthetics. A study at Walter Reed Army Medical […]
Kinematics is the study of motion and the development of equations to describe it. It evaluates traits such as acceleration, displacement, and speed, and can be applied to everything from studying how horses run to analyzing the movement of particles in space. Inverse kinematics examines how objects must move to achieve certain goals and is […]
