Kinematics is pivotal in robotics for understanding and controlling the position and orientation of a robot's end-effector. It encompasses forward kinematics, which calculates end-effector position from joint parameters, and inverse kinematics, which determines joint parameters for a desired end-effector pose. Essential concepts include degrees of freedom, kinematic chains, and various methods for solving kinematic problems including both analytical and numerical techniques.
