Metaverse in mobility

Approach

Call for proposals: Round 5

In recent years, many companies from various sectors have started to explore the possibilities offered by the different technologies integrated into the metaverse, where people can communicate, collaborate, and create content in a virtual environment. This not only includes technology or entertainment companies, whose application may seem direct, but also sectors such as education for use as an online teaching platform where interaction and collaboration in real-time are possible, or tourism, with the aim of creating virtual travel experiences.allowing users to visit places or attend events without leaving their homes. Some of these companies are working on platforms and technologies specific to the metaverse world, while others are integrating elements of virtual worlds into their existing products.

The challenge

We aim to be the first European railway operator to explore the possibilities of the metaverse applied to the mobility sector, seeking to develop the first use cases applied to transportation with the goal of examining its potential and evaluating the balance between the physical and virtual worlds.

Nuestros retos

Digitalization of security systems

We aim to continue fostering the development of the most revolutionary technological projects focused on driving the digitalization of Renfe’s security systems.

Ecological transportation

In order to continue being the most environmentally friendly mode of passenger transportation, we need solutions that contribute to enhancing our leadership, in line with our strategic plan: promoting the use of public transportation, new models that manage to mitigate environmental impact, systems that contribute to energy transition (green hydrogen, natural gas, biomethane…), and new sustainable and ecological materials for passenger trains.

Virtual reality training

We are seeking to develop a virtual reality tool that integrates training needs in driving, digitizing real infrastructure environments and specific vehicles. This tool will allow training in situations and skills necessary to complement safety training for driving personnel.

Industry 5.0

We are looking for innovative technological projects in the field of railway manufacturing and maintenance, aimed at digitization and the incorporation of new Industry 5.0 technologies (IoT, Big Data, asset management, process digitization, augmented reality, additive manufacturing, computer vision, etc.).

Fleet optimization

We are looking for technological solutions that enable better optimization of the rolling stock fleet to improve efficiency and offer the best possible service to our customers.
