Polaris MV850 × ORVIWO: A Disaster-Response ATV Built for Connectivity, Visibility, and Command
In Puerto Rico—and across the Caribbean—disaster response rarely happens under perfect conditions. Hurricanes, floods, landslides, and extended power outages create a familiar reality:
Roads blocked or partially accessible
Cellular networks congested or intermittent
Limited visibility across impacted zones
High consequence decisions made with incomplete information
That’s where lightweight tactical mobility matters.
The Polaris MV850 (MV Series) is a proven off-road platform for moving people and gear fast across rough terrain. ORVIWO’s focus is taking that mobility and integrating it into a mission-ready field capability—so teams can stay connected, capture evidence, share situational awareness, and coordinate under pressure.
🇵🇷 Engineered in Puerto Rico. ⚡ Built for the frontline. 🔐 Powered by ORVIWO.
What “Integration” Means at ORVIWO
When ORVIWO integrates a solution into an ATV, we’re not talking about a single device. We’re talking about a complete field system designed around four operational pillars:
Power you can trust (protected, fused, and designed for long shifts)
Connectivity that adapts (cellular + satellite, with secure backhaul)
Edge compute for field decisions (rugged operator devices and local processing)
Visibility that persists (mast cameras + local NVR recording, even offline)
The result is a Polaris platform that becomes a mobile incident node—capable of operating when coverage is degraded and infrastructure is unstable.

The ORVIWO Polaris MV850 “Disaster Node” Concept
1) Power Layer: The Foundation
Disaster operations fail when power is improvised. ORVIWO adds a protected power layer designed for mission endurance:
Auxiliary battery system (shift-duration sizing)
DC-DC charging/isolator to protect the ATV’s starting system
Weather-resistant fused distribution
Outputs for router, cameras, NVR, and operator devices
This creates predictable runtime and safer field operations.
2) Connectivity Layer: Cellular + Satellite, Built for Reality
When towers are congested or down, teams need options. ORVIWO integrates a vehicle networking stack that can include:
Rugged vehicle router (cellular LTE/5G capable)
High-performance multi-band antenna configuration
Optional satellite backhaul (for true “keep moving” connectivity)
Encrypted VPN connectivity back to HQ/EOC when a path exists
Local Wi-Fi bubble for team devices and field tablets
This lets the Polaris MV850 act as a moving comms relay and a connected endpoint, depending on mission needs.
3) Operator & Edge Layer: Decisions in the Field
A vehicle can’t “lead” the mission—operators do. ORVIWO enables that with a rugged operator stack:
Rugged tablet/laptop mounting (field-viewable, glove-friendly workflow)
Mapping / coordination apps (mission-dependent)
Simple workflows for reporting, photo/video capture, and incident documentation
Optional integrations for interoperable comms and cross-agency coordination
The goal: reduce friction, increase clarity, and keep the operator focused.
4) Visibility Layer: Mast Cameras + Local NVR (Even When Offline)
This is where the MV850 becomes more than transportation.
ORVIWO’s Full Visibility Package can include:
Telescoping mast camera (overwatch at a stop, improved line-of-sight)
Forward/rear cameras for route awareness and incident documentation
Rugged NVR + SSD storage for reliable local recording
PoE switching to simplify wiring and power delivery
Optional analytics and health monitoring (uptime, storage, camera status)
Why local recording matters: because disasters don’t guarantee bandwidth. Your evidence and visibility should not depend on a perfect network.
Built-In Cybersecurity and Network Discipline
Field systems are still networks—and networks must be protected.
ORVIWO designs deployments with:
Segmented networking (separating video, operator devices, and backhaul)
Encrypted VPN tunnels for remote access
Logging and accountability for operational assurance
Practical “field-safe” hardening (secure configs, minimal exposure)
This matters for public safety, utilities, and any mission where data integrity and operational trust are non-negotiable.

Where This Platform Shines: Real Mission Use Cases
Disaster Response & Hurricane Recovery

ORVIWO Deployment Approach
ORVIWO doesn’t just install equipment—we deliver an operational system:
Mission profile & environment assessment
Vehicle survey + mounting plan (safe, serviceable, low center of gravity)
Power + comms + video architecture (designed as one system)
Installation + ruggedization (strain relief, sealed connectors, vibration discipline)
Test, validation, and SOPs
Training + sustainment (spares, maintenance plan, health checks)
