Talk:Degrees of freedom (mechanics)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A typical Backhoe, for example, has 3 degrees of freedom.
[edit] Rename to "mechanics"
The word "engineering" is too diffuse here. The title should be Degrees of Freedom (mechanics). For example, the reference to the Elec Engg concept of Antenna DOFs is perhaps more appropriate in the DOF(physics) discussion than here.
[edit] Examples of Degrees of Freedom in Robotics
I think it would be highly beneficial to include a more applied example to this article (or wherever is most appropriate) - something like http://www.robotics.utexas.edu/rrg/learn_more/low_ed/dof/ - or at the very least, link to such a resource in the external links. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.104.137.129 (talk) 22:41, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
