The study of the kinematics of manipulators refers to all the geometrical and time-based properties of the motion.
Dynamics is a field of study devoted to studying the forces required to cause motion.
Trajectory Generation is A common way of causing a manipulator to move from here to there in a
smooth, controlled fashion is to cause each joint to move as specified by a smooth function of time.
