DESCRIPTION AND ACHIEVEMENTS:
The Technological Institute of Optics, Colour and Imaging (AIDO) is
recognised by the Economy and Competitiveness Ministry as a Technology
Centre, so it has the aim of generating and transferring knowledge to market
through the development of technological solutions based on optical
technologies and Photonics to increase efficiency and quality of products in
the industrial sector and to improve the quality of life and wellbeing of
society.
AIDO transfers its knowledge to market, through private R&D projects,
exploitation and license agreements and patents (7 patents), as well as
through its participation in 2 technology-based companies.
AIDO has as a key objective the development of its R&D capabilities and its

currently participating in 12 projects. In addition AIDO is a member of the
Board of Stakeholders of the European Technology Platform Photonics 21,
the main group in Europe devoted to the technological trends definition in
the field of Photonics. AIDO also holds the technical secretariat of the
Spanish mirror of Photonics 21, Fotónica 21.

DESCRIPTION AND ACHIEVEMENTS:
Our aim is to use our specialist knowledge to provide our
clients with high-value results within a clear, transparent
legal framework, which:
• will guarantee that clients can implement their
business model on the basis of the results, with the
necessary freedom of use and exclusivity, and
• enable Vicomtech-IK4 to continue on its path of
technology specialisation.
Vicomtech-IK4 therefore has a contractual relationship
model based on clear separation of technology
knowledge and client results. This model allows the
centre. This model allows us to achieve results with high
added value for our clients, while we foster knowledge
generation.

Applied Research, Technology Development
and Innovation requirements of local companies
and institutions in the Computer Graphics and
Multimedia fields, enhancing their competitive
edge and improving society’s economic
development and quality of life.
• The main transfer mechanism for this research is
the creation of R+D+i projects geared to
companies’ needs. Through these projects we
provide added value to companies in several
sectors: industry, intelligent transportation systems,
medical imaging and bioinformatics, digital security,
environment and sustainability, audiovisual and
media, tourism, language industries, training,
