About RioDatos and Our Products

What does RioDatos do?
RioDatos is a U.S. industrial safety technology company headquartered in Tucson, Arizona. RioDatos makes RioV360, an AI pedestrian detection system for heavy equipment, including forklifts, excavators, wheel loaders, dump trucks, telehandlers, skid steers, scrapers, and other mixed industrial vehicles. Our flagship product is the RioV360, a complete 4-camera 360° AI pedestrian and vehicle detection system that ships from Arizona inventory. 


What is the RioV360?
RioV360 is a complete AI pedestrian and vehicle detection system for heavy equipment. Four IP69K cameras mount on the front, rear, left and right of the machine and connect to a 7-inch in-cab AI monitor. The system detects pedestrians and vehicles in real time and triggers instant visual and audible alerts in the cab, plus an external beacon that alerts workers on the ground. All AI processing and video recording happen locally on the machine. RioV360 does not require cloud, WiFi or a subscription. 

What is inviol?
inviol is a CCTV AI-powered safety monitoring platform that uses fixed or existing facility cameras to detect unsafe interactions between pedestrians and industrial vehicles. The system identifies near-misses, pedestrians entering vehicle zones, unsafe driving behavior, and traffic congestion. It captures event video with timestamps, generates safety behavior data, and delivers alerts and trend reporting to EHS teams. inviol is site-wide monitoring software and a coaching toolkit.

How the Systems Work

How does the RioV360 detect pedestrians and vehicles?
RioV360 uses four AI cameras mounted around the machine. Each camera covers a 130° field of view. It delivers full 360° coverage with no blind spots. The on-device AI processes video in real time and detects pedestrians in any position: standing, crouching, kneeling, or partially obscured. It also detects other vehicles and equipment. No wearable tags. No RFID. No site infrastructure required.

How does the RioV360 alert the operator?
When the AI detects a pedestrian or vehicle inside the detection zone, the operator receives an immediate visual and audible alarm on the 7-inch in-cab monitor. At the same time, the external beacon activates with sound and light to warn people on the ground. RioV360 ships with pre-configured zones that are easily customized on-site. 

Does RioV360 require WiFi, cloud access, or subscriptions?

No. RioV360 is a fully self-contained on-device system. All AI processing and video recording happen locally on the machine. No WiFi, no cloud, no monthly fees, and no IT involvement required. It installs and operates the same day.


How does RioV360 record video?
RioV360 records continuously in 1080p HD from all four cameras simultaneously to the included 256 GB industrial microSD card. It provides approximately 30 hours of recorded video and is upgradable to a 512 GB microSD card providing 60 hours of recorded video. Footage is date and time stamped and organized in daily directories. When the card fills, the system automatically overwrites the oldest files. Lock critical clips with a long press to prevent overwriting. To review footage, pull the SD card and insert it into any laptop. No login, dashboard, or upload required.

Installation and Compatibility

What equipment is RioV360 compatible with?
RioV360 is compatible with any machine operating on 8 to 32V DC. This includes forklifts, excavators, wheel loaders, dump trucks, telehandlers, skid steers, scrapers, and most other industrial vehicles. No custom wiring. No separate power source. The complete installation kit includes every bracket, cable, fastener, and mounting hardware needed.

How long does RioV360 installation take?
Most installations are completed in under two hours. The complete installation kit includes brackets, cables, fasteners, and other mounting hardware. Customers can self-install using the user manual, ChatGPT assistance, and phone support from our team in Arizona. For multi-vehicle fleet rollouts, RioDatos offers turnkey installation and on-site team training.


Does RioV360 work in remote or off-grid locations?

Yes. Because RioV360 operates entirely on-device with no cloud or network requirement, it works in any environment, including remote quarries, off-grid construction sites, underground operations, and areas with no cellular or WiFi signal. This is one of the reasons it is well suited to mining, construction, and heavy industrial environments.
