Abstract :
This article presents the Ibero-American Open-Surg project, that attempts to develop several medical robotic applications, based on open source software. This project expects that the developed software tools can be extensively used on teaching techniques about medical procedures in Ibero-America. Objectives and advances of this project are presented in this document.
