I reviewed a few kinematic terms on wikipedia, and it left me wondering what came first the chicken or the egg :)
What one do you begin with?
Inverse kinematics
Forward kinematics
Kinematics chain
Kinematics pair
Quaternions (this looks like fun)

Is there software that can generate the code for this?
Solidus Labs code looks fairly straight forward to me.
But not having a fundamental background in kinematics I couldn't navigate this on my own.
This is my interpretation of the GDR code:
Ra_1 looks like a distance calculation.
La_1 looks like the Z axis location.
Da_1 looks like he's making the distance proportional.
Then there is a singularity check (if statements) with an alarm ECHOPGM.
Lastly he calculates the position, delta[X_AXIS].
A bit confusing as my brain thinks Cartesian coordinates when it sees XYZ, I would prefer ABC.
Where is the firmware I'll take a look at it.
I would like to see a new forum for kinematics.
