COMPANY ANNOUNCES RECEIPT OF LARGEST SINGLE ORDER FOR DVF-500 DIGITAL VIDEO
FLASHLIGHT SYSTEMS
OVERLAND PARK, Kan., Aug. 15 /EMWNews/ -- Digital Ally,
Inc. (Nasdaq: DGLY), which develops, manufactures and markets advanced
digital technology products for law enforcement, homeland security and
commercial security applications, today announced that the Company has
received its fifth order for its DVM-500 In-Car Video Rearview Mirror
Systems from the West Virginia State Police. The state police agency placed
orders for 124 systems in early 2007, an additional 50 systems in September
2007, a third order for 100 systems in the first quarter of 2008 and a
fourth order for 13 systems in April 2008. The latest order, for 229 units,
brings the total number of DVM-500 systems being utilized by the West
Virginia State Police to 516 units.
"We are very pleased that the West Virginia State Police is so
satisfied with the performance of our DVM-500 In-Car Video Rearview Mirror
Systems that the agency has placed its largest order, to date, with our
Company," stated Stanton E. Ross, Chief Executive Officer of Digital Ally,
Inc. "While the cumulative total of 516 units ordered by the West Virginia
State Police represents the largest number of DVM-500 systems ordered by a
single law enforcement agency in the United States, the number of our
customers that have placed multiple follow-on orders after gaining field
experience with their initial DVM-500s continues to expand."
The Company also announced that it has received its largest single
order, to date, for DVF-500 Digital Video Flashlight systems. The DVF-500
is a portable digital and video recording system integrated into a
high-quality, water-resistant machined aluminum law enforcement-style
flashlight. It provides law enforcement officers with the ability to
document the discovery and/or collection of criminal evidence on a "real
time" basis and is not limited to the fixed field of vision that is
characteristic of in-car video systems.
"While this order from an international customer totals only 25 units,
it illustrates that law enforcement agencies are moving beyond the testing
phase and into the deployment of the DVF-500 within their organizations,"
continued Ross. "We have always expected that broad acceptance of the
DVF-500 Digital Video Flashlight would take more time than was the case
with our DVM-500 In-Car Video systems, because we are defining and serving
a market that did not exist prior to the introduction of our product. On
the other hand, the DVF-500 provides law enforcement officers with much
greater flexibility in the documentation of criminal activities regardless
of their location, and we believe the long-range market potential for
digital video flashlights will be substantial."
