As a strategy to address the difficulties encountered when modeling and controlling a musculoskeletal system, we present a straightforward implementation of an autonomous decentralized motion control system in this paper; the system is inspired by the spinal reflex system of animals. We developed an artificial receptor, a muscle, and a neuron to mechanically implement the reflex mechanisms of anim...
