The development of robotic technology is starting to influence every segment of our lives, therefore, some boundaries should be set in order for robots to coexist with people and interact with them. In this paper, first, general classification of robots will be presented, along with some real life examples. Next, it will be talked about liability rules, product liability and the current Council Directive 85/374/EEC, which is currently used in the case of defective products. Following this introduction part, the issues surrounding liability in robotics will be discussed, along with most problematic application areas of robotics and possible solutions will be suggested. Current practice on European civil law rules on robotics and its suggestions will be analyzed as well. Afterward, it will be talked about the influence of law regulation on robotics and the importance of regulating this field, in order to support scientific growth and development. Finally, three case studies are chosen and they will be discussed.
