I am working on a system that reads the weight distribution of a machine by placing a load cell under each of the four supports to find the center of gravity in real time, a professor mentioned that having four readings may cause redundant forces and make our system statically indeterminate. Is it a bad idea for us to use 4 load cells or can we use the 4 readings and still come up with an accurate representation of the center of gravity?**We are using general statics equations to get the center of gravity
If you want to make someone mad a banana can go there.
