  2. Six degrees of freedom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_degrees_of_freedom

    Six degrees of freedom also refers to movement in video game-play. First-person shooter (FPS) games generally provide five degrees of freedom: forwards/backwards, slide left/right, up/down (jump/crouch/lie), yaw (turn left/right), and pitch (look up/down). If the game allows leaning control, then some consider it a sixth DOF; however, this may ...

  3. Degrees of freedom (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degrees_of_freedom_(mechanics)

    A mechanism or linkage containing a number of connected rigid bodies may have more than the degrees of freedom for a single rigid body. Here the term degrees of freedom is used to describe the number of parameters needed to specify the spatial pose of a linkage. It is also defined in context of the configuration space, task space and workspace ...

  4. Motor coordination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_coordination

    A woman exercising. In physiology, motor coordination is the orchestrated movement of multiple body parts as required to accomplish intended actions, like walking.This coordination is achieved by adjusting kinematic and kinetic parameters associated with each body part involved in the intended movement.

  5. Degrees of freedom problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degrees_of_freedom_problem

    In neuroscience and motor control, the degrees of freedom problem or motor equivalence problem states that there are multiple ways for humans or animals to perform a movement in order to achieve the same goal. In other words, under normal circumstances, no simple one-to-one correspondence exists between a motor problem (or task) and a motor ...

  6. Motion simulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_simulator

    A motion platform base for a simulator giving all six degrees of freedom to a simulator mounted on the base plate, using six jacks, generally known as a hexapod. A motion simulator or motion platform is a mechanism that creates the feelings of being in a real motion environment. [1]

  7. Inverse kinematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_kinematics

    In some, but not all cases, there exist analytical solutions to inverse kinematic problems. One such example is for a 6-Degrees of Freedom (DoF) robot (for example, 6 revolute joints) moving in 3D space (with 3 position degrees of freedom, and 3 rotational degrees of freedom). If the degrees of freedom of the robot exceeds the degrees of ...

  8. Degrees of freedom (physics and chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degrees_of_freedom_(physics...

    In physics and chemistry, a degree of freedom is an independent physical parameter in the chosen parameterization of a physical system.More formally, given a parameterization of a physical system, the number of degrees of freedom is the smallest number of parameters whose values need to be known in order to always be possible to determine the values of all parameters in the chosen ...

  9. Degrees of freedom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degrees_of_freedom

    In many scientific fields, the degrees of freedom of a system is the number of parameters of the system that may vary independently. For example, a point in the plane has two degrees of freedom for translation : its two coordinates ; a non-infinitesimal object on the plane might have additional degrees of freedoms related to its orientation .
