Teams from Feng Chia University delivered an outstanding performance at the 22nd National Electronic Design Creativity Competition 2026, bringing home a total of ten awards. Most notably, Feng Chia students achieved a clean sweep of first, second, and third place in the Smart Big Data and Mobile App Category of the university division. In the Information and Communications Technology Category, Feng Chia teams also excelled, winning first place, third place, and several honorable mentions. These achievements demonstrated students’ ability to transform expertise in electronics, communications, and information technology into innovative solutions for real-world challenges.
In the Smart Big Data and Mobile App Category, students Hong-Yu Chou and Yuan-Hung Lin from the AI Club, under the guidance of Professor Huai-Chung Hsu from the Department of Information Engineering, captured the championship with their project, “Design and Implementation of a Visual-Assistance Application Based on a Hybrid AI Architecture.” The application integrates multiple AI models to convert visual information into real-time audio feedback, helping visually impaired users navigate traffic signals, avoid obstacles, and perform other wayfinding tasks.
Hong-Yu Chou shared that participation in the AI Club provided opportunities to move beyond software simulation and gain hands-on experience operating real robotic systems. Seeing their technology function successfully in real-world scenarios made the development process both challenging and rewarding.
Meanwhile, in the Information and Communications Technology Category, a student team advised by Professor Chun-Li Chin of the Department of Automatic Control Engineering won the championship with its project, “A New Vision for Smart Healthcare Companionship.” Recognizing that healthcare digitalization often focuses primarily on diagnostic processes, the team developed a lightweight intelligent healthcare platform using Python FastAPI. Team members noted that while clinical validation and cybersecurity regulations remain challenges before real-world implementation, they hope the system will ultimately enhance patient engagement while helping healthcare professionals maintain high-quality communication.

Under the guidance of Professor Chun-Li Chin from the Department of Automatic Control Engineering, students Fu-Cheng Tsai, Cheng-En Lee, Yi-Wei Chen, Tzu-Hung Yang, Cheng-Hsien Lin, Rong-Sheng Chen, Hung-Ju Chen, and Chin-Yu Hung won first place in the University Division’s Information and Communications Technology Category with their project, A New Vision for Smart Healthcare Companionship.
Among the ten award-winning teams, student technology communities on campus played a pivotal role in fostering innovation and collaboration. The Google Developer Groups on Campus FCU alone had seven teams advance to the final round, with six ultimately receiving awards, including one second-place prize, two third-place prizes, and three honorable mentions.
The organization has long emphasized hands-on technical practice and effective collaboration using AI-powered tools. By training students to move systematically from problem identification to solution validation, the group has created a strong culture of technical mentorship and interdisciplinary innovation.
According to Feng Chia University, these achievements reflect not only the hard work of students and faculty but also the successful implementation of the university’s long-term CDIO (Conceive–Design–Implement–Operate) educational model. The university currently supports numerous student-led technology organizations, including Google Developer Groups on Campus FCU, iOS Club, AI Club, and the Hacker Club, all of which receive faculty mentorship while providing students with opportunities to develop practical skills, pursue innovation, and engage in interdisciplinary learning.
Looking ahead, Feng Chia University will continue investing resources to encourage students to participate in practical competitions beyond the classroom. Through hands-on learning experiences, the university aims to cultivate interdisciplinary professionals with the creativity and problem-solving capabilities needed to address real-world challenges.
The iOS Club and Google Developer Groups on Campus FCU achieved impressive results at the National Electronic Design Creativity Competition, with seven teams advancing to the finals and six receiving awards.
