This paper describes the development of force feedback method for a remote laparoscopic surgical system. We developed a remote laparoscopic surgical system and have been conducted several time of tele-surgery experiment over the conventional network infrastructure. However, in this surgical system, it is difficult to configure appropriate power output from lack of sense of force. Consequently, we apply force feedback to a remote laparoscopic surgical system. We measure force applied on a tip of the forceps by measuring force applied on driving shafts of a forceps. Furthermore, we conducted a task evaluation experiment of force feedback through remote operation.
