Bluetrait

Another weekend, another uni. Today I went to UNSW. I liked the campus, much nicer than Sydney and better than UTS too.

First lecture that I went to was industrial chemistry. Quite an interesting course, although not for me ;) We then headed to the square building (the place where you'll computers markets every few months) and saw Sony Aibo (robot dogs) playing soccer, very funky/cool. UNSW and UTS enter a competition every year where they enter these dogs into a soccer tournament. The cool thing is that the dogs cannot be controlled by Humans, they're all AI. The software is developed by each team. After the competition the software is made open source so that everyone can improve on their design. How cool!

UNSW is very much geared to research and development.

Unfortunately the Computer Science/Bioinformatics talks weren't great (better than Sydney) and I still feel that UTS is better for me. But it was a very enjoyable day.

On another random topic, Smash Mouth is a cool band.
