Taser (yes, the company that makes the Taser stun device) has sold body cameras to more than 1,200 police departments, according to Steve Tuttle, the company’s vice president of strategic communications.

He estimates that around 20,000 of Taser’s cameras are being used in the field. That number could see a boost as police departments respond to public pressure and take advantage of federal funding.

“In the quarter before Ferguson happened, we saw a dramatic increase in sales,” Tuttle told NBC News. “And then Ferguson hit and that has created this tremendous public awareness about body cameras.”
