Exhibit 99.1


              Digital Recorders, Inc. Announces $500,000
             Order for TwinVision(R) All-LED Sign Systems


    DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 21, 2007--Digital Recorders, Inc.
(DRI) (NASDAQ: TBUS), a digital communications technology leader in
the domestic and international public transportation and transit
security markets, announced today that its TwinVision na, Inc.
subsidiary in Durham, N.C., has received a product order valued at
approximately $500,000 from the Capital District Transit Authority
(CDTA) in Albany, N.Y.

    "The CDTA is upgrading portions of its existing passenger transit
fleet's communications products. Soon, the CDTA's reliance upon older
technology such as front- and side-roller curtain signs and rear
flip-dot signs will be a thing of the past. Instead, the CDTA's bus
vehicle fleet will be retrofitted with the TwinVision(R) amber all-LED
electronic destination sign system -- a solid-state, technologically
innovative product. This will improve the reliability and readability
of the CDTA's route communications, as well as assist the CDTA in
ensuring its compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Since there are no moving parts in this product, the CDTA's
maintenance costs also will be reduced. Our TwinVision(R) products
improve the flow of people through the transit experience. As such,
our products contribute to energy efficiency, help reduce roadway
congestion, and support the need to reduce fossil fuel consumption.
Indeed, our TwinVision(R) products and services foster environmental
stewardship," David L. Turney, the Company's Chairman, President, and
Chief Executive Officer, said.

    Management anticipates that delivery will conclude in the last
half of 2007.
