 On a different day I took a taxi with a Korean friend and was asked what my nationality was. When I replied that I was Japanese he started to rant about why he doesn't like Japanese people and all the terrible things that they had done to them. It was good that we only needed a short taxi ride but was definitely a wake up call. I have since stopped replying that I am Japanese and just tell people that I am American when asked. This was the first time that this has happened in these 7 weeks so I do not think that this school of though is common.  On a different day I took a taxi with a Korean friend and was asked what my nationality was.

-I have finished the final versions of the Installation tutorials for Xenomai and PODO, and the tutorial for the installation of ROS simulators with the DRC-Hubo model. With these two tutorials done I can now move on to working on more advanced tutorials based on working with the simulated version of DRC-Hubo. For this I have to learn more about ROS and how to integrate it with PODO. Two specific ways I have been learning is using the ROS-Joy package to control the model using a usb game controller and setting up a simple navigation program to show case the power of the simulators to experiment real-world situations. I have finished implementing the Joy packages with PODO and have written that portion of the tutorial. However the implementation of the navigation stacks still eludes me. I will get this done before next week and will have that portion of the tutorial up as well. I have also just finished a rough draft of my tutorial on how to read sensor data from the simulators. This was easier than I had expected so I hope that I was able to write a good tutorial and that I did not misunderstand how to read feedback from the simulators. Though we started the upgrade process for DRC-Hubo2 (Jaemi) we haven't touched her since and am a little worried if we will be able to finish the upgrades before we leave. I will talk to some of the people from Rainbow about this today.     +I have finished the final versions of the Installation tutorials for Xenomai and PODO, and the tutorial for the installation of ROS simulators with the DRC-Hubo model.
