DJI, the global leader in civil drones and creative camera technology, today introduces the DJI Matrice 4 Series as the company’s new compact flagship enterprise drone series. Launching with the Matrice 4T and Matrice 4E, these new intelligent multi-sensor compact drones feature advanced capabilities such as smart detection and laser range finder measurement. With an AI computing platform and significantly enhanced sensing capabilities, flight operations with these drones will be even safer and more reliable than ever before.
“With the Matrice 4 Series, DJI is ushering in a new era of intelligent aerial operations. In equipping our industry-leading enterprise drones with AI, search and rescue teams can save lives faster,” said Christina Zhang, Senior Director of Corporate Strategy at DJI. “Moreover, the intelligent features in the Matrice 4 Series will be raised to a new level, enabling enterprise drones to better address the escalating operational demands in different complex scenarios.”
Multiple Intelligent Sensors for Detailed Night or Day Visuals and Precision Mapping
The DJI Matrice 4 Series features a medium tele camera and a tele camera. With the optical 70mm medium telephoto lens (1/1.3 CMOS, 48MP, f/2.8), screws and cracks can be identified in medium-range inspections for power lines and bridges from a distance of 10 meters. For longer-range inspections, the 168mm telephoto lens (1/1.5 CMOS, 48 MP, f/2.8) can capture incredible details from up to 250 meters away. Additionally, the laser range finder can measure distances from 1,800 meters away.
The DJI Matrice 4T can serve various industries, from emergency response and public safety to energy management. The infrared thermal camera supports High-Res Mode up to 1280×1024 pixels, while the NIR auxiliary light can illuminate distances 100 meters away. Other notable modules include a 24mm wide-angle lens (1/1.3 CMOS, 48MP, f/1.7) and an IR-Cut Filter for clear visuals day and night.
The DJI Matrice 4E is designed for surveying, mapping, construction, and inspections. High-speed aerial surveying from multiple angles can be done with the 24mm wide-angle lens (4/3 CMOS, 20MP, f/2.8-f/11) with a mechanical shutter. It supports rapid 0.5-second interval shooting in orthophoto and oblique photography modes with mapping flight speeds reaching up to 21 meters per second. With Smart 3D Capture, rough models and precise mapping routes can be generated on the remote controller, allowing for detailed measurements of irregular buildings. It can also display virtual space routes and waypoint photos, enhancing flight safety assessment and coverage area analysis.
Intelligent Aerial Support for Search and Rescue Missions
The Matrice 4 Series serves as a second pair of eyes during search and rescue missions. Vehicles and vessels can be quickly detected from a distance, even in difficult terrain. The drones can be flown on cruise control, allowing searches to maintain a consistent speed and freeing pilots to multitask. When paired with the DJI Pilot 2 app, the Matrice 4 Series can visualize on a map what ground area has already been observed based on the camera’s field of view and without needing an obvious landmark — helping to ensure no area is missed. Furthermore, new applications for drones can be developed now that DJI offers model training tools and access to onboard computing capabilities to certified third-party developers.
Excellent Visuals in Complex Environments
The Matrice 4 Series makes extensive upgrades to night mode – a key capability for nighttime wildlife protection efforts and search and rescue missions. With larger apertures and intelligent low-light capabilities, the cameras on the Matrice 4T and Matrice 4E allow for better performance during dusk and nighttime lighting. They also have six high-definition low-light fisheye lenses, significantly enhancing visual low-light positioning, allowing for automatic obstacle avoidance, intelligent rerouting, and safe return in urban low-light environments. In case of fog, haze, or high humidity, Electronic Dehazing can improve the imaging clarity of the Matrice 4 series to match different operational environments and requirements.
New Accessories for Efficiency and Adaptability
The Matrice 4 Series upgrades accessories for more efficiency and adaptable operations. The DJI AL1 SpotLight can clearly illuminate subjects even from 100 meters away, supporting both always-on and strobe modes. It also offers enhanced coverage in wide-angle modes. Meanwhile, the DJI AS1 Speaker delivers powerful audio, broadcasting up to 300 meters and reaching 114 decibels at 1 meter.
Further elevating operations, the D-RTK 3 Multifunctional Station supports drones with centimeter-level positioning accuracy, extending image transmission through signal relays at elevated altitudes and facilitating high-precision data collection in network-free areas. Additionally, it can also be used to mark ground control points.
Smarter and Safer Flights for Worry-Free Operations
DJI’s self-developed RTK module comes standard in the Matrice 4 Series, providing comprehensive visibility for enhanced safety. The standard configuration includes a 5-directional vision assist view along with a downward vision. Pilots can take off within 15 seconds during emergencies and update return-to-home points through visual positioning even without GNSS signals. If connected with the Internet, the remote controller can download terrain obstacle details and detailed offline maps. This enables automatic path planning for obstacle avoidance helping pilots navigate at night or through mountainous areas.
Industry-Leading Privacy Controls
DJI places the highest priority on data privacy – and puts customers in control of their data. Users must opt-in to share photos and videos with DJI, and US-based users no longer have the option to sync their flight logs with DJI servers. For heightened data security needs or those flying sensitive missions, Local Data Mode can be activated to sever the DJI Pilot 2 flight control app’s connection with the Internet. This prevents unintentional syncing of photos, videos or flight logs with external servers. Any personal data shared for account registration is further secured with AES-256 encryption. Operators can easily delete any data they have shared through their DJI account or by contacting DJI Support. Since 2017, we have regularly submitted our products for third-party security audits and certification, including Booz Allen Hamilton, FTI Consulting and Kivu Consulting.
DJI Care Enterprise Plus and DJI Warranty Service
DJI Care Enterprise Plus, alongside the Official Extended Warranty Service, offers a comprehensive protection plan for the DJI Matrice 4 Series, covering a wide array of accidental damages.
DJI Care Enterprise Plus includes unlimited free repairs within specified coverage limits. Additionally, it features one-time annual Flyaway Coverage, allowing for worry-free operation, as well as shared coverage for maximum protection with a shared limit. The Exclusive Service guarantees prompt assistance from DJI technical experts, further enhancing user support.
Moreover, during the service period, the main components of the product remain covered under the official warranty, extending the overall protection for your investment.
