The latest order, for 75 DVM-500 systems, brings the total number of units ordered by the Arkansas State Police since June 2007 to approximately 214.
"Renewal of the West Virginia statewide contract and an expanding number of re-orders from the Arkansas State Police illustrates a growing level of confidence in Digital Ally products as customers gain experience with the DVM-500 in the field," stated Stanton E. Ross , Chief Executive Officer of the Company. "The unique features, space-saving characteristics, and cost- effectiveness of the DVM-500 represent competitive factors that have allowed Digital Ally to continue expanding its share of the in-car video market within the domestic and law enforcement communities.
