This illustration shows a two-dimensional Delta robot that moves in 
two-dimensional Cartesian space. 
 
This robot has two rotary joints that move the gripper in the (X1, X2) plane. Two 
forearm assemblies attach a fixed top plate to a movable bottom plate. A gripper is 
attached to the movable bottom plate. The bottom plate is always orthogonal to 
the X2 axis and its position is translated in Cartesian space (X1, X2) by 
mechanical parallelograms in each forearm assembly. The two joints, J1, and J2,
