The gear lever position is not the same as “where the car is on the map.” Joint angles are like lever positions. Tip position in metres is like the map. Forward kinematics (FK) converts joint space → task space. Inverse kinematics (IK) tries the reverse. This lesson connects every earlier tool to that story.
