In 2005, a team led by Jang Ming-jyi brought its “ self-regulating tea-steeping cup ” (which used the principle of an hourglass to regulate how long leaves are steeped) to the International Exhibition of Inventions of Geneva, where they won a gold. From that point on, FEU became a frequent winner at top international invention fairs, including those in Geneva, Nuremberg, Pittsburgh, London, and Seoul.
而打從 2005 年起，由鐘明吉領軍設計的「自動茶水分離泡茶杯」（藉由沙漏原理，控制茶葉泡在熱水中的時間），在日內瓦發明展獲得第一面金牌開始，遠東科大就逐漸成為瑞士日內瓦、德國紐倫堡、美國匹茲堡、英國倫敦、韓國首爾等世界一流發明展的常勝軍。
