Auto & IDIADA: Innovation & Technology examples

In Auto, use of simulators for training and straight through processing for efficiency

The use of simulators with virtual 3-dimensional vehicles on screen allows for a flexible, agile, portable and cost-effective training of Auto inspectors by simulating the inspection of any type of vehicle without it having to be physically present. Simulation provides unlimited fault scenario, vehicles and environments.

Further enhancements with the online booking, payments and vehicle arrival at the station have improved the working capital and efficiency of the operation. It is a better customer experience and reduces the physical contact of people at the stations during Covid times.

CAVRide (Idiada): A standard production car to Level 4 Autonomous

Combining laser technology with short, medium and long-range radar and cameras, the driverless car is highly automated including emergency intervention. The car was first tested on the simulator at IDIADA before being put to test around the IDIADA headquarters in Catalonia.

ROCE Calculation

Total Capital Employed

ROCE (1) = Net Adjusted Operating Profit after tax / Capital Employed

ROCE (2) = Net Adjusted Operating Profit after tax/ Capital Employed, excluding Assets related to the Purchase price allocation from 2007 Leverage Buy Out
