The study of cosmic Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) is an important challenge for the understanding of the formation of black holes and for the star formation and evolution in the early universe. GRBs are also an invaluable cosmological probe. ESO has agreed to install a set of robotic telescopes at La Silla, TAROT-S and REM (Chincarini et al., see page 40). TAROT-South is a very fast moving (1s) optical robotic observatory able to observe from the beginning of the explosion. The spacecraft fleet detecting GRBs will send timely signals to TAROT, which in turn will be able to give a sub-arc second position to the community. The data from TAROT-S will also be useful to study the evolution of GRBs, the physics of the fireball and of the surrounding material.
