One machine, three years, four medals
一台機器,三年,四面獎牌
Our Automatic Multi-Toiletries Dispenser started in 2024 as a concept and won Gold at the New Time invention salon. Then the team built it for real, with an Arduino, peristaltic pumps and four or five 3D-printed prototypes to fix leaks and refilling. It went on to win Bronze at KIDE 2025, Silver and the INNOPA Special Award at the Malaysia Technology Expo (virtual category), and Bronze at WorldInvent Singapore (online edition).
智慧多元盥洗用品分配系統在 2024 年還只是概念,就在 New Time 國際發明展拿下金牌。之後團隊真的把它做出來,用 Arduino 和蠕動幫浦,前後做了四、五個 3D 列印原型,解決漏液和補充的問題。接著又拿下 2025 KIDE 銅牌、馬來西亞國際科技展(線上組)銀牌與 INNOPA 特別獎,以及新加坡國際發明展(線上舉辦)銅牌。
The AI Organizing Shelf took about four months from first sketch (March 2026) to a Gold at WorldInvent Singapore (July 2026, online edition). It is still a design, judged online from our poster and a rendered film, and 經濟日報 reported it.
人工智慧整理架從 2026 年 3 月的第一張草圖,到 7 月在新加坡國際發明展(線上舉辦)拿下金牌,大約四個月。整理架目前還在設計階段,評審看的是我們的海報和 3D 動畫影片,經濟日報也做了報導。

Category exclusivity covers only the lab's own sponsor items (team shirt, sponsor page, KIDE strip and brochure, our Instagram). It never covers school-wide items, the lab's name or the inventions, and it is subject to school and event rules.
You can also give equipment, software, materials or services. Each is valued as below and matched to the level of the same value. Engineer time counts too, as a Mentor Partner.

依貴公司對同一工作的書面報價
Cash and in-kind from the same sponsor add up. Items ship to the school, addressed to Dr. Julio Macrohon, and stay in the lab as school property. The business office confirms what in-kind receipt it can issue.
Engineer time, such as office hours, design reviews or judging, arranged and supervised by the school. It has no cash value. You get your name (or your logo, if you agree) on our sponsor page, thanks in a shared Instagram post, a mention in the build log when your advice is used, and both reports. Needs the school's OK
Sponsorships are paid to Hsinchu County American School, never to students. The school's business office confirms what receipt it can issue.
Any agreement is made with the school, which confirms the final benefits. Sponsors get no rights to the inventions, and students do not advertise sponsors' products.
Logos have to reach us before our print deadline in early November to be on the KIDE banner strip and brochure. We confirm the exact date when you contact us.
Equipment, materials and services count at their invoice value, at the level that matches.
Instagram numbers in our reports are real and dated. We don't promise views or followers.
After KIDE you get a one-page report within two weeks, and an impact report at the end of the season.
