A popular solver for direct inverse kinematics is IKFast. This takes constraints defined and outputs closed-form solutions while handling failure cases like configurations that lead to infinite solutions.

typically, would we also want a trajectory to get from A to B? or does the animator provide this by moving the target point p? can direct inverse kinematics provide a trajectory?
