Hi there! Some time ago I went to RUA FM with my friend Gonçalo Pereira to give an interview about our participation in the European BEST Engineering Competition, in Istanbul, as the portuguese representatives in the Team Design Category. Our team was composed by four electronics engineering students: me, Gonçalo Pereira, Ana Margarida and João Lezinho. After winning the local BEST engineering contest in Faro, and the portuguese BEST engineering contest, in Oporto, we qualified for the european contest. After we arrived home, we were invited to share our experience in Istanbul in the university's radio. The interview is in portuguese, so you must know portuguese to understand it. If you know portuguese, you can hear the interview below or download it here. If you don't know, you can learn portuguese and then come back here to hear it :P. You can also check some other interviews and interesting talks from the professors and students of the electronics engineering department of the University of the Algarve here (all in portuguese).
And at last but not least, thanks to Câmara Municipal de Faro, Câmara Municipal de Olhão, Liga dos Combatentes de Loulé and Instituto Superior de Engenharia of the University do Algarve for supporting us in our journey.
Update (23/11/11): I gave Another Interview to RUA FM about Cognitive Robotics, in portuguese. Check it out if you want. :)

My mate presents a reggae program at Rua FM
ReplyDeleteCool! Is it this one? :) http://zonareggae.wordpress.com/zonareggae-radioshow-rootsdub-revival-selections-rua-fm/

ReplyDeleteE eu passei a seguir o teu blog.
ReplyDeleteTantos anos desde que a musica tomou conta do meu tempo, que a programacao esta tao atrasada, em relacao a todos os desenvolvimentos que se passaram desde entao.
Python parece que e uma das linguagens mais poderosas e usadas neste momento (nunca me tinha passado pelos ouvidos na altura lol)
Java ja era vista como uma boa alternativa para uma linguagem multi plataforma, e assim parece ter sido provada.
Ate o pouco C++ que eu sabia na altura esta quase desactualizado hoje em dia lol eh eh Por isso tenho passado estes ultimos meses a tentar recuperar algum do tempo perdido nesse aspecto. Com o Arduino e 32 Bits PIC's (serie PIC32MX tem alguns modelos ai fora ben interessantes como Pinguino, Chip Kit, etc...Para efeitos de audio, parece-me muito mais indicado que um de 8 bits ou ate 16 ).
Mantem esse material interessante aqui, porque existem pessoas ca fora a ler. lol
Abraco !!
