Abstract
In various implementations a removable appendage of a robot can allow for stable pitch and yaw, while mitigating interference with other movements of the robot. A neck of the robot can include at least two linear actuators, each coupled to a rod that is driven to move linearly from the linear actuators. An appendage of the robot can be coupled to the neck. The appendage can include a at least two tracks, where each track receives an end of the rods to slidably engage the rod.
