Hosted by the Acoustical Society of China and exclusively sponsored by CRYSOUND , the Final Round of the 3rd “Shenghua Cup”National Acoustic Technology Competition successfully concluded in Hangzhou on October 11, 2025.

This year’s competition attracted 61 teams from 39 universities and research institutes across China. Young acoustic talents demonstrated the remarkable strength and creativity of China’s new generation of acoustic researchers through hands-on challenges.

The practical testing session of this year’s “Shenghua Cup” was designed around real-world acoustic measurement scenarios. Relying on CRYSOUND’s self-developed zero-threshold development kit — SonoCam Pi, the competition comprehensively assessed the participants’ overall capabilities in system setup, data acquisition, and algorithm implementation.

Despite complex testing environments and technical challenges, the participants remained composed and collaborative, skillfully integrating theory with practice and demonstrating solid professional competence.

During the academic defense session, expert judges evaluated and questioned the teams from multiple dimensions — including algorithmic logic, technical depth, and application value. The lively exchanges of ideas showcased both the rigorous scientific mindset and the innovative spirit of acoustic research.

CRYSOUND also organized the “Exploring the World of Acoustic Technology” tour, opening its showroom and production lines to experts and student teams.

Through guided explanations and live demonstrations by CRYSOUND engineers, visitors gained close-up insights into the company’s core products — such as Acoustic Imaging Cameras, SonoCam Pi, Data Acquisition Systems, Measurement Microphones, and Calibrators — and engaged in in-depth discussions on the industrialization pathways of acoustic technologies.

As the exclusive sponsor and organizer of the event, CRYSOUND not only provided full hardware and technical support, but also offered participation subsidies to every student team, encouraging them to focus fully on hands-on experimentation in the anechoic chamber without concerns.

Jason Cao, CEO of CRYSOUND, remarked:

“We hope the ‘Shenghua Cup’ is more than just a competition — it serves as a bridge linking universities, research institutes, and industries. Through this event, many innovative ideas have gained recognition from the industry and even led to potential collaborations. This is the true meaning of ‘industry-academia-research integration.’”

While the competition may have concluded, innovation never stops. CRYSOUND extends heartfelt thanks to the Acoustical Society of China, to every expert, teacher, and student for their dedication and passion.

Looking ahead, CRYSOUND will continue to work with industry partners to build a more open and dynamic innovation platform, helping more acoustic technologies move from the laboratory to industrial applications — together shaping a brighter future for the field of acoustics.
