Between 1991 and 1993, I studied at a technical high school that studied Electronics with Computer Science, where I learned Electronics, which I was very curious about how it worked, and I was able to improve my programming skills, since I had been programming as a self-taught person since I was a child.
I graduated from IBA-Wakigawa, a joint effort between the Instituto Batista Americano technical school and the WakigawaSupplementary School, where they shared the same space, with Technical classes in the mornings and Supplementary classes at other times.
I really liked the Technical classes, there were many practical classes and regular projects, which earned me prizes at annual fairs. During these years, the projects of my team were very well-known and we won some awards. They were:
Prizes at the Electronics Fair
1st Place in the School with the project “MSX Secure” – Alarm System for Homes using MSX Computer @ 1993
1st Place of the 1st Year with the project “Disarm the Bomb” – Electronic Game @ 1991
Other Projects
“SpyFone” – Capture of telephone calls with transmission/reception via FM Radio @ 1991
“Soundboard” – Sound Card for PC via LPT1 port @ 1991
“WWII Game” – Shooting game with infrared pistol and WWII targets to hit @ 1992
“Electronic Drums” – Electronic Drums with 8 Pads with a pre-recorded EPROM chip @ 1992
Although the focus was much more on Electronics than on Computer Science, I really liked everything, but I decided to go to college to study Computer Science, because it was what I liked most.
