|              | **Advantages**            | **Disadvantages**     |
|--------------|---------------------------|-----------------------|
| **Serial**   | Maneuverability           | Poor precision        |
|              | Large workspace           | Bends under high load |
|              |                           | Vibrate at high speed |
| **Parallel** | High stiffness            | Small workspace       |
|              | Good dynamic performances |                       |
|              | Precise positioning       |                       |

The generalized Stewart platforms consists of two rigid bodies (referred to as the base and the platform) connected through six extensible legs, each with spherical joints at both ends.
