Abstract:     A robotic biped, quadruped or the like including a skeletal frame having right and left leg/foot assemblies, skeletal structure interconnecting the right and left leg/foot assemblies with freedom for movement relative to one another in respective ones of spaced parallel vertical planes and with one leg/foot assembly leading the other when both are firmly planted on the ground, right and left leg actuating mechanisms for raising and advancing respective ones of the left and right leg/foot assemblies mounted on respective ones of the right and left leg/foot assemblies, a remotely operable motor/transmission carried by the skeletal frame with freedom for right-to-left and left-to-right translation into the one of the right and left spaced parallel vertical planes containing the leading ground-engaged leg/foot assembly, a clutch or coupling mechanism for coupling the motor/transmission to the one of the right and left actuating mechanisms mounted on the leading one of the ground-engaged right and left leg/foot assemblies so as to cause the other trailing leg/foot assembly to be raised off the ground, advanced, and replanted on the ground in advance of the one initially leading leg/foot assembly, and a transfer mechanism for uncoupling the motor/transmission from the one actuating mechanism when the other initially trailing leg/foot assembly is replanted on the ground in advance of the initially leading, now trailing, one leg/foot assembly and shifting the motor/transmission laterally into the other of the right and left spaced parallel vertical planes.
