Utilizing industrial robots is an efficient method for addressing the labor crisis and advancing industrial technologies. As a result, industrial robots are becoming increasingly popular. Additionally, the widespread use of industrial robots will increase the interest in robot propulsion mechanisms. Legged robots should be primarily investigated because of their potential advantages. Among leg mechanisms, Jansen\"s linkage (JL) has gained popularity due to its organic walking motion, scalable design, and simple drive by rotary input. However, the highly nonlinear nature of JL makes its analysis challenging. The research provides a user-friendly toolbox design that visualizes the toe trajectory and simultaneously calculates the step height by performing a kinematic analysis of the JL using the user-supplied link lengths. In this way, the study contributes significantly to the design phase of legged robots and reduces the amount of time required.
