Temperature-controlled container company Jettainer presented a US$3,000 prize to a team from airfreight IT specialist Champ Cargosystems at the IATA Hackathon in Dublin on 26 February.
For two days, on February 24 and 25, about 100 developers in nine teams from all over the world pondered how IATAs ONE Record standard can be used to make supply chains more efficient. Among the four challenges addressed was a Jettainer ULD challenge to create a solution for an AI-assisted serviceability check of a ULD.
With Luna the team developed an AI powered assistant for serviceability checks of any type of ULD using voice, text, and pictures and leveraging the power of the ONE Record API.
Presenting the award, Jettainer chief executive, Dr Jan-Wilhelm Breithaupt said: “The competition of ideas and creative solutions here in Dublin was absolutely first class. There were numerous good and innovative approaches, but the Champ Cargosystems team narrowly came out on top and deserved it well. Their approach is very promising.”
He added that ONE Record opens up a world of new possibilities to add further value to ULD management services.
