Manual Positioning Of Commercial Robots
Can you explain how commercial robots can be manually manipulated into position for learning purposes without completely losing stability? Is it because the robot detects a shift in direction via its encoders and then permits the movement? Typically, when the robot is powered down, it could collapse, so some level of power is needed to maintain...
