In the context of robotics, degrees of freedom refers to:

• motion

• legal rights

• Covid restrictions

• parental curfews

How many degrees of freedom does the human arm have?

• 2

• 4

• 6

• 8

Select all of the possible movements for a robot with an artificial arm.

• arm—up and down

• body—rotate

• wrist—up and down

• arm - rotate

• body - lengthen and shorten

What are the three ways robots move?

• pick-and-place, point-to-point, contouring

• pick-and-place, point-to-point, jumping

• grab-and-break, point-to-point, contouring

• pick-and-pick, place-to-place, contouring

Which type of movement suits loading and assembly functions in mass-production situations?

• pick-and-place

• point-to-point

• contouring

Which type of movement suits continuous welding?

• pick-and-place

• point-to-point

• contouring

This movement is controlled from one point location in space to another, with each point programmed into the robot's control memory and then played back during the work cycle.

• pick-and-place

• point-to-point

• contouring

Which type of movement suits tasks such as spot welding?

• pick-and-place

• point-to-point

• contouring

This movement allows the robot to follow a path which forms the shape of a smooth curve. The robot's gripper carries out a programmable path movement and performs variable functions on this path.

• pick-and-place

• point-to-point

• contouring

This movement has only two positions per axis.

• pick-and-place

• point-to-point

• contouring
