Update

Been a while since I last updated this blog, so lets start with a rundown of the past few weeks:

We are currently reading two different courses at East China University of Science and Technology (hereafter ECUST); basic Chinese language studies and a course in motor control. The Chinese course have daily classes and take up a lot of time, while the motor control course (held in English) has one or two lectures a week.

Finally, we are currently planning a project course together with a professor at ECUST, where we will be designing an AI for a robot (http://www.grandar.cn/en/product/index.htm - it's the cylindrical black robots shown on top of the page).

Shanghai is a big city, and we have yet to go touring it properly. We have visited the big electronics market (awesome place, an incredible amount of stuff on display) and seen some other parts of downtown.

I have also bought a Wacom tablet (Intuos4 Large), so now I can do some drawing here in Shanghai!

...There, I think that sums up the status report, next up I will describe the various projects (school or personal) that me and my classmate are developing here.
