“Participating in Big Blue Madness signifies a pivotal moment for ASB GlassFloor and underscores our commitment to innovation in collegiate sports,” Christof Babinsky, managing director of ASB GlassFloor told Kentucky Athletics. “This event is not just a showcase; it’s an opportunity to demonstrate how our sports floors can transform the game for athletes while creating an unparalleled experience for fans. Our partnership here will set a new standard for the future of collegiate sports events.”
Per the Kentucky Athletics website, "the floor is equipped with LED technology beneath the glass, turning the court into a dynamic display that can adapt instantly to the needs of any game, whether it be basketball, volleyball, or other major competitions. The digital court provides dynamic branding opportunities, in-game activations, and real-time data displays, all while maintaining the performance and safety standards expected at the highest levels of sport."
