Abstract
Robotic surgery is the most promising application of telerobotic technologies to everyday life. Probably, surgical robots will open the way to new service robots in medicine, rehabilitation, assistance and personal care, and will foster, hopefully, the growth of new products and markets that will improve the quality of life of people across the world.
