Abstract :
In order to reproduce a life-like open-close movement in a robotized jaw simulator, JSN/2A, we provided it with a physiological and adaptive control scheme including antagonistic activities of posterior-temporalis and lateral-pterygoid actuators. This strategy was verified effective for improving horizontal stability of the movement
