Great! From the 8th till the 15th, I've been in a trip to China, in the IROS Conference (International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems), I went there with my Greek friend Ioannis, who happened to be my chairman replacing my supervisor Prof. D. Caldwell, who wasn't able to be there with us. Anyway it was great, we went to the Great wall, Forbidden City, and more! Some pictures here. For more you know where to get them, don't you?

A new paper was submitted for the ICRA 2007 , in which I am co-author. The 2007 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA'07) will be held in Rome, Italy, from April 10 to April 14, 2007, and the title of my new paper is "Lower Body Design of the Baby Humanoid - ‘iCub’". In this new paper a more complete description of the waist for the iCUB is described and my new controller is used for a successful torque, speed and position control.

I just arrived from my mini Euro trip. Me and my family visited London, Rome and Paris in a very quick way to celebrate my recent graduation. As all my friends know, I am always very interested in cultural things, so I spend all my time visiting museums, and interesting places like the Roman Coliseum, The Vatican, the Pope's tomb, Eiffel Tower, Les Champs D' Elisse, Louvre Museum, The Arch of triumph, Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, and the UK's motor show of course! 156 pictures of all my trip in my FTP site. WARNING: very high resolution, 8 Mega Pixels camera :-) Some pics here:

My graduation ceremony become the happiest day of all this years of effort due to the presence of all my family, dad, mom and sister. But I was not alone my good friend Rene graduated with me.. No more words... here the pics.
