Various exemplary methods, systems, and devices for robotic surgical instrument communication are provided. In general, a surgical tool includes a sensor configured to sense a parameter related to the surgical tool and to wirelessly communicate the sensed data to another device, e.g., another surgical tool. Each of the surgical tool and the other device are configured to be operatively connected to a robotic surgical system and to be controlled by the robotic surgical system. The other device is configured to transmit the data received from the surgical tool to the robotic surgical system.
