Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Analyze a scenario where a climbing robot is used for an inspection of an old bridge requiring assessment of structural integrity and detail how inverse kinematics ensures the robot does not fall.

💡 Hint: Think about how the robot identifies where it can place its grips.

Challenge 2 Hard

Consider a climbing inspection robot that has lost power while positioned at a height. Propose a method for safely retrieving it and discuss the role IK would play.

💡 Hint: Reflect on how IK could help in repositioning during a rescue.
