The main task of the system is achieve a desired positional relation between two or more components of the system. Therefore, a sensor measures the position which is then compared to the desired value, and the resulting error is used to generate correcting forces. In most systems, the "actual output" (e.g. position of end-effector) cannot be measured directly, and the feedback will therefore be based on a "measured output" (e.g. encoder signal at the motor).
