Direct vs indirect Time-of-Flight, structured infrared light projection, MEMS IMUs and Allan variance, proprioceptive joint encoders, and multimodal sensor calibration.

Feedback linearization, computed torque cancellation, Lyapunov asymptotic tracking, Khatib’s operational space formulation, and Hogan’s mechanical impedance control.

Kinematic boundary constraints, bang-bang vs trapezoidal velocity profiles, S-curve jerk limitation, 5th-order polynomial splines, and Flash-Hogan biological minimum jerk.

Kinetic energy matrices, Riemannian metric tensors, Christoffel symbols of the first kind, Coriolis-centrifugal skew-symmetry, and the Newton-Euler recursive algorithm.
