ROVT In dangerous situations, the tactical robot offers law enforcement alternatives to putting people in harm's way.

Washington County Sheriff's Office Remotely Operated Vehicle Team (ROVT) provides tactical police robotic support for teams and agencies within Washington County The robot is capable of gripping, manipulating, carrying and opening objects, punching through windows, cutting wires, and even deploying a 37mm gas launcher. Its cameras record audio and video in a full 360-degree rotation around the rob

ot. The team also employs other technologies along side robotics for advanced communication and observation in tactical situations. With more grant funding, the team was able to purchase two more robots. These two do not have manipulator arms and are much smaller. They offer a quick way to get a first look at an incident. These two robots are also used in our Field Search Robots (FSR) program. They are carried in the patrol cars of on-duty ROVT members for use in routine patrol patrol functions. The Remotely Operated Vehicle Team is available to support all law enforcement agencies in the Portland Metropolitan area. It will routinely deploy throughout Washington County upon request by the Tactical Negotiations Team, the Hostage Negotiations Team, and to support Search and Rescue efforts.
