Resumen:
We present here the results of our optical monitoring program of the LBV eta Carinæ. This program was begun to register the ``eclipse-like´´ event, which ocurred in 2003.5 (Fernández Lajús et al. 2003). 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.
