This paper presents the kinematic modeling and singularity analysis of a three-degree-of-freedom, double four-bar closed-loop quadruped leg mechanism. This leg is essential for transitioning between the two operational modes; therefore, it is examined in both joint and task spaces, leading to the development of its Jacobian matrix, which is vital for designing the gaits required for terrestrial mode and mid-air aerial reconfiguration (for aerial mode). Various gaits are devised for the system's motion in the MATLAB simulation, and their practical implementation on the single-leg test rig is demonstrated.
