Forward kinematics computes where a robot arm's tip ends up from its joint angles. Each link rotates relative to the previous one, so the transforms chain together. It is fast and unique — every set of angles gives exactly one end-effector position — which is why controllers use it constantly.

Governing equation

x = i \sum L_{i} cos (j \leq i \sum θ_{j}) = 172.2, y = i \sum L_{i} sin (j \leq i \sum θ_{j}) = 110.4

Reading this result: Reach 205 sits near the 210 maximum: the three links are nearly collinear, so the arm is almost fully extended.

About this simulation

The full Forward Kinematics tool models a robot maze with the same numerics engineers and scientists use — running entirely client-side. Change any parameter and the result updates in real time, so you can build intuition, check a design, or teach the concept without spreadsheets or installs.
