This will be achieved by standardizing the steps in the processes and also because Saroca can clean the car while the battery is being charged, which reduces downtime. This increases the vehicles&#8217; availability on the street, enhancing the carsharing service.<\/p>\n<p>Fitted with two mechanical arms that perform a range of functions, such as vacuuming the car&#8217;s interior, cleaning the windshield and fully disinfecting all components of the car, the robot also improves worker safety due to its enhanced ergonomics.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-M wp-image-101159\" src=\"https:\/\/newsroom.ferrovial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2020\/12\/landscape-blue-on-white-1-800x459.png\" alt=\"EIT Logo\" width=\"800\" height=\"459\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static.newsroom.ferrovial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/15143135\/landscape-blue-on-white-1-800x459.png 800w, https:\/\/static.newsroom.ferrovial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/15143135\/landscape-blue-on-white-1-300x172.png 300w, https:\/\/static.newsroom.ferrovial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/15143135\/landscape-blue-on-white-1-1024x588.png 1024w, https:\/\/static.newsroom.ferrovial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/15143135\/landscape-blue-on-white-1-768x441.png 768w, https:\/\/static.newsroom.ferrovial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/15143135\/landscape-blue-on-white-1-1536x881.png 1536w, https:\/\/static.newsroom.ferrovial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/15143135\/landscape-blue-on-white-1.png 1877w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-M wp-image-101173\" src=\"https:\/\/newsroom.ferrovial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2020\/12\/saroca-1-800x170.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"170\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static.newsroom.ferrovial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/15143133\/saroca-1-800x170.png 800w, https:\/\/static.newsroom.ferrovial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/15143133\/saroca-1-300x64.png 300w, https:\/\/static.newsroom.ferrovial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/15143133\/saroca-1-1024x217.png 1024w, https:\/\/static.newsroom.ferrovial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/15143133\/saroca-1-768x163.png 768w, https:\/\/static.newsroom.ferrovial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/15143133\/saroca-1-1536x326.png 1536w, https:\/\/static.newsroom.ferrovial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/15143133\/saroca-1-2048x435.png 2048w, https:\/\/static.newsroom.ferrovial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/15143133\/saroca-1-1920x407.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Additionally, during the cleaning process it will apply Long Clean Surface, a persistent disinfectant to combat COVID-19 that has successfully passed tests designed to ascertain its efficacy against coronavirus and its high degree of persistence.<\/p>\n<p>The main difference between this product and conventional disinfectants is that it adheres to surfaces, enabling them to remain free of the virus for a long time. The product represents a sustainable, ecological alternative that could help reduce the use of conventional cleaning products, whose chemical residues accumulate in wastewater and which have a negative environmental impact. This new technology is also proving useful as a biocide for eliminating micro-organisms that are similar to SARS-CoV-19, the virus that causes the COVID-19 infection.<\/p>\n<p>The robot also contributes to standardizing the process of disinfecting the Zity fleet by ensuring that every corner of every vehicle is covered.<\/p>\n<p>As part of this initiative, a smart system is also being developed to detect damage to the vehicles; it consists of a set of cameras, motion sensors and a video tool that identify damage and generate a report that makes it easier to manage the fleet and the optimize vehicle availability.<\/p>\n<p>ZITY, CI3 (Centro de Innovaci\u00f3n de Infraestructuras inteligentes) and Italian IT consulting firm Santer Reply are also participating in this project, which commenced a year ago and is in the final phases of development. Saroca, which is supported by EIT Digital, is expected to be operational in the coming months.<\/p>\n        <\/div>\n
