The 8 selected projects allow the company to prepare to design, among other ideas, a pioneering system of drones in nests that can be operated remotely to check the quality of infrastructure.
The engineering and consultancy, Ineco, has selected 8 innovation proposals from among the nearly 80 ideas received in the latest call for intrapreneurship focused on improving mobility and digitalisation from the hand of its main clients.
Based on co-creation, Ineco's new innovation model seeks to solve the challenges that clients have proposed to the company. The ideas presented cover solutions such as the use of artificial intelligence (included in 65% of the proposals) with application both to the data obtained in the inspections carried out with drones and to the measurement of fatigue and workload or the development of tools for the adaptation of transport infrastructures to climate change.
The 8 selected projects allow the company to prepare to design, among other ideas, a pioneering system of drones in nests that can be operated remotely to check the quality of infrastructure. The possibility of having drones ready to carry out an inspection at any time is a great asset for any infrastructure manager, both to guarantee safety and the continuity of the service provided. A solution to the challenge of innovative aerial mobility, where drones are becoming key players in the future of transport. Predictive maintenance, digitisation of the Administration, digital twins, satellite use application, human factor, and climate change and emissions reduction complement the set of challenges faced by Ineco professionals in this new call for innovation.
Throughout 2024, different multidisciplinary teams at Ineco, made up of around 50 people, will be responsible for developing the 8 selected proposals. To carry out this selection, an Innovation Committee led by the president of Ineco, Sergio Vázquez Torrón, and with representatives of the company's main clients, has taken into account factors such as alignment with the challenges and strategies established, the response to client needs, and creativity, originality and innovation.
Innovation, a lever in the fight against climate change
Climate change is one of the challenges with the highest response rate in the call for innovation conducted by the engineering and consultancy firm, Ineco. Tackling the consequences of the extreme weather events of recent years is key to the success of safe and sustainable mobility.
Among other innovations, over the coming months the company will design a new multi-risk index to determine which areas of the territory are most likely to suffer extraordinary events related to wind and rain. It also envisages the implementation of an early warning system for the transport network, thanks to an intelligent analysis of weather forecast data.
