24. IV. Classroom summary

25. Summary
Please sum up the contents of this lesson, and raise your questions if any.

26. After-class thinking
- What is the difference between two handle control modes of their respective manipulator and the advantages and disadvantages?
- The difference of three patterns of point-to-point motion and their respective application scenarios?
- Is there any room for improvement of the manipulator?
