In the previous section, we derived the model for the forward kinematics: we calculated the TCP pose given the values of the joint axes. In this section, we solve the inverse problem: find the values of the joint axes given the position and orientation of TCP relative to the base frame (see Figure 4-1).

An illustration of the values of the joint axes X, Y, and Z from the T C P pose. The equation ...
