2-Link Robotic Arm Inverse Kinematics

Experiment with two-link arm control by inputting joint angles to reach target points. Discover the geometric intuition behind inverse kinematics and see how trigonometry controls motion.

Robotic Arm Visualization
Adjust the link lengths and input angles to control the arm position
Link Lengths
Adjust the length of each arm segment
Joint Angles
Enter angles to control the arm. Two solutions exist for most targets!

Angle between Link 1 and horizontal axis
