This paper deals with the description of a telerobotic surgery experim
ent, conducted on July 7, 1993, between the Politecnico di Milano, Tel
erobotics Laboratory, Italy, and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasade
na, CA. It describes the results obtained. the new objectives proposed
and the technical equipment. It also provides a comparison between th
e different solutions adopted. Telerobotic surgery requires particular
skill; the integration of human capabilities with robotics in surgery
offers useful results for robotic applications in new fields, especia
lly health care.
