Resumen:
We present here the results of our optical monitoring program of the LBV Eta Carinae.This program was begun to register the ``eclipse-like'' event, which ocurred in 2003.5.Then, we continued observing this object (Fernández Lajús et al. 2004, 2005), aiming to complete the orbital period of 5.5 years of the proposed binary (Damineli et al. 2000; Corcoran, 2005). This work shows the results obtained till 2006, August.
