Abstract(in English) In this study, the authors focused on and observed the human infants' primitive reflexes, and intended to reproduce the behavior though a humanoid robotic arm with rubber muscles and muscle-skeleton structure equivalent to that of the human. The purpose is to investigate a hypothesis that fine and complex voluntary movements might be generated through changes of the parameters, which produce the primitive reflexes. In the present study, especially, motion characteristics of the robotic arm and rubber-muscle's tension features were clearly examined.
