We turn action sports into a big online game - play Tony Hawk Pro Skater in the real world vs. the TV screen. We created the WOO - an innovative wearable for action sports that measures things like airtime, jump height, g-force, slope conditions, among many other key metrics. The collected data is transmitted to the iOS and Android app and the cloud which creates value for three sets of customers:
Consumers: Create an exciting mobile experience for action sport participants through gamification and social media. The collected data will allow us to create online leaderboards, competitions, challenges, and build an engaged social media community - turn action sports into an online game
Media: Enhance media and event formats with quantified data. Action sports are still judged by the human eye, we bring it to the next level. The action sports ecosystem is long overdue for an objective score.
Brands: Build closer connections between brands and their customers by delivering meaningful data about who their customers are, and allowing them to sell and promote product through our platform.

Repair procedures for complex infrastructure often require adherence to detailed codes, standards, and regulations that ensure safety, quality, and compliance. These guidelines provide specific criteria for materials, methods, and practices that must be followed during repairs to ensure the necessary performance and safety standards. Navigating these codes and standards can be intricate, complex, and time-consuming. Repair teams must have a deep understanding of these documents to ensure the work is both compliant and effective.
An engineer requires substantial experience to become knowledgeable and competent in making decisions about repairing complex infrastructure. Typically, this involves not only a strong foundation in engineering principles gained through formal education but also years of hands-on experience in the field. Today, industries face an increasing knowledge gap due to experienced employees retiring at a faster rate than they are being replaced.
Recently, an oil refinery repair team faced the problem of needing to assess and repair a pressure vessel that experienced erosion and corrosion damage. It took a team of 5 engineers nearly 3 hours to develop a repair plan that adhered to current regulations, codes, and standards. Blue Century’s SME-AI platform, trained on all current codes, standards, and regulations currently in use by the refinery industry to maintain its infrastructure, generated a highly accurate and detailed repair plan in just 27 seconds.
Contact us today to schedule a demo and to see for yourself how the Blue Century SME-AI platform can help you maximize the effectiveness of your engineering, service, and maintenance teams so you can establish and maintain industrial leading uptime and reliability.
