The four parameters of classic DH convention are shown in red text, which are θ i, d i, a i, α i. With those four parameters, we can translate the coordinates from O i–1 X i–1 Y i–1 Z i–1 to O i X i Y i Z i. The following four transformation parameters are known as D–H parameters: [4] d: offset along previous z to the common normal
