2077 Digital Ally has begun production of its new DVM-250 Digital Event Recorders, and has also won its first order for 65 of the units from one of the largest ambulance service providers in the United States.

The device automatically records and stores video and audio from inside and outside vehicles. Thus, in the case of an abrupt change in acceleration/deceleration, such as during a vehicle accident, sudden stop or other violent manoeuvre, the event is automatically recorded, including one minute prior to the event. Other possible triggers for automatic recording include specific speeds and GPS coordinates, and an optional Interface Box can provide additional possibilities, including shifting the vehicle into reverse, emergency lights, door sensors and more. Users may also start recordings manually, for instance to record the criminal actions of passengers.

    Signing the order to equip a new control room just 45 days before the city hosts a major sporting event is challenging - but some deadlines just cannot be moved.
