1 Overview to the robot system
As shown in Figure 2-1, in the Panda series of robots, each robot system
consists of three main components: the robot body (also known as the
manipulator), the controller and the teach pendant.

Figure 2- 1 Robot system
The robot body is a mechanical body used to complete various tasks of the
robot system, and mainly includes a robot casing, a driving device, a
transmission unit, and an internal sensor.
Compared with the heavy and multi-core cables of traditional industrial
robots, the Panda series robot’s drive and brakes are integrated into the robot
body. This greatly reduces the number of cable cores connected from the body
to the controller, and also improves the stability and anti-interference ability of
the cable transmission data, and reduces the cost.
The main material of the body casing is aluminum alloy. The robot's
principle of motion is a combination of rotational motions of six joints. Using
kinematics and dynamics analysis, the algorithm is solved to achieve the desired
motion at the end of the robot.
The controller is the structural realization of the robot control function and
is a key part of determining the function and level of the robot. The controller is
loaded with a power source, a computer, etc., to control the overall motion of
the robot.
The teach pendant is the main interface of human-computer interaction,
and its internal part is composed of a touch screen display, a control circuit
board and some components. The robot can be programmed and operated by
