"The fifth edition of the student competition Interactive Digital Media was noted for a larger participation than in previous years and for a remarkable quality of the applications presented by the competing teams. The jury had a rather difficult task in choosing the best projects to be awarded. The competition was a valuable and motivating experience for the students and high school students involved, through the suggestions, recommendations and prizes offered by the partner companies. The degree of completion and the monetization plans of the developed applications were noted, which led to the awarding for the first time of an award for the best business idea, an award given by the Multimedia Center. In recent years, the development of interactive applications has become an integral part of multimedia education, especially within the Master's program in Multimedia Technologies. We are happy that this year (as in 2017), one of the most important prizes was won by a student from Grigore Moisil High School in Timișoara, with a complex audio-video production application, which indicates a promising perspective for the future of multimedia in Timisoara. I congratulate the winners and thank our partners: Nokia, Intel Movidius, Cobalt Sign, SafeFleet, Lasting, Haufe Group and Tree web Solutions for their support and for the prizes awarded for each section, which further motivated the participants," said Prof. Dr. Eng. Radu Vasiu, Director of the Multimedia Center.
