[SO-101] Manual repositioning between lessons and zero shift for educators schools (beginner)
SO-101 discussion on students manually moving the arm between lessons, zero shift afterward, and classroom checks that prevent drift from accumulating.
A very practical SO-101 classroom issue appears when someone manually moves the arm between lessons or demos. The robot may still power on and operate, but the next group notices the zero pose or familiar start positions feel a little off.
How are you diagnosing zero shift on SO-101 after manual repositioning between lessons?
Please share what students or staff are allowed to move by hand, which signs tell you a harmless reposition became a true zero problem, and what quick checks help you recover before the next class starts.
If you reply, include one exact zero-shift symptom and one exact classroom check or reset step that prevented the problem from compounding.
The best replies explain what kind of manual movement caused trouble and what kind was actually harmless.
If one pre-class visual check catches most zero-shift problems, share it. That is what teachers and lab assistants tend to search for.
It also helps to say how you keep the issue from repeating in shared classroom setups.
