After that, we attach one sensor unit to each link having 2 degrees of freedom, as well as special purpose sensors such as electromagnetic compasses and gyro sensors.

All of the circles, with diameters of 57-59 mm, are drawn with pen compasses; in each case, the center point is marked by a tiny brown dot.
