Chroma ATE Chairman Leo Huang emphasized the award's commitment to nurturing the next generation of talent. "The Chroma Paper Award aims to inspire young minds to explore creative applications in precision measurement," said Huang. "By encouraging collaboration between academia and industry, we can cultivate exceptional talent to address the evolving R&D needs of Taiwan's technology sector and fuel future innovation."

On the day of the final review, Chroma concurrently held the Tech Industry Advocacy and Career Consultation Fair, inviting all participating students and their advisors to take part. At the event, Chroma's R&D leads, product managers, and technical specialists shared their insights on various topics, including Chroma's role in the tech industry, corporate sustainability, career paths from novice engineer to R&D leader, and technological innovation. Six of Chroma's technical experts provided face-to-face career consultations, drawing a large number of students and creating a lively atmosphere at the venue.

The coveted gold award was given to a team from the Department of Power Mechanical Engineering at National Tsing Hua University. Yu-Hsiang Wen, Wei-Chen Kuo, Yi-Kuo Wu, Chun-Yu Wu, and Yu-Chen Wu were recognized for their paper titled "Development of a Full-field Real-time Stress and Strain Measurement System". Their faculty advisors were professor Dr. Wei-Chung Wang and Dr. Po-Chi Sung.

The detailed list of winners can be found on the official website of the Chroma Paper Award.

Closing the ceremony, I-Shih Tseng, President of Chroma's Integrated Systems BU, gave a speech: "Generative AI has made people anxious, everyone may be wondering when they will be replaced by AI. However, no matter how technology changes, the need for precise and reliable measurements will always exist. My advice to students is that going to a large company may seem promising, but you may be put in a very small position and stay there for a lifetime.

At Chroma, we offer a dynamic and highly challenging work environment. Our colleagues are constantly challenged by Wall Street's "Big 7". For us, every time we have a breakthrough project, we see these technologies being promoted all over the world, going on to shape a better future. We really enjoy the process of making breakthroughs, and we hope that more people can join us in this experience."
