Once upon a time ...

On this post I will talk about what I was doing in Brazil, before come to US.
I was studying Computer Science at the Universidade Federal Fluminense de Niteroi, a city near Rio de Janeiro, that I was studying since 2010.

The Building Where I Have Class

I have already studied 3 years, and to finish I need just one more year. I was working in a lab called MidiaCom, in this lab the people work in the area of network and the Interactive Digital TV, where I was working.

The group that I were working with there are 2 PhD student, 2 master's degree students and 3 undergraduate students and the professor that helped us a lot. We develop tools to help people to create program to the Interactive Digital TV. They have already develop a lot of tools to help author that don't have knowledge in the language NCL, a programming language to create program to the Interactive Digital TV. An example of a interactive program is a TV commercial from a supermarket and than they shows some products and price, and you can buy this products pressing a button in the remote control. There are a lot of kind of programs that can be made, this is just one example.

  1. I'm impressed by the technical level of the work your were doing at MidiaCom. Was this work you were being paid for, or was it part of a class?

    Love the photos!
