BlueWX Co., Ltd.
Revolutionizing Aviation Safety with AI-Driven Turbulence and Wind Prediction
As global warming increases turbulence risks and the aviation industry faces mounting pressure to reduce fuel costs and CO₂ emissions, conventional prediction models have struggled to address these challenges. This Keio University spinout has developed an innovative deep learning AI model for turbulence and wind prediction that delivers 2.7 times greater accuracy than existing solutions. The system has been successfully trialed by approximately 2,500 pilots at major Japanese airlines, demonstrating its ability to enhance both safety and operational efficiency. The company is now preparing for global expansion.
