Abstract
This foreword analyses how in the shift from industrial sectors to social and domestic sectors the form of robots is actually subjected to great changes. Furthermore, it reports some recent data on robot diffusion, implicitly inviting researchers to reflect on the trends of robot diffusion that give the precise indication to focus on the material sphere of the housework.
