Scientific paper

An overview of Robotic Astronomical facilities (especially in Spain) is presented. The study focuses on two aspects: the control software (one of such example being the RTS2 system) and the network of BOOTES robotic telescopes, partly devoted to the study of gamma-ray burst counterparts at optical and near-infrared wavelengths. This potential application of small/medium size robotic telescopes will shed light on the high redshift Universe and should be used for triggering larger size instruments in order to perform more detailed studies of host galaxies and intervening material on the line of sight.
