Longer Flight Time, Robust Protection
When fully charged, Matrice 4D/4TD delivers an impressive flight time of 47 minutes at a speed of 15 m/s, achieving a remarkable 37% increase in operation time. [11] At a radius of 10 km, these drones provide 18 minutes of operation. [12] Both models are designed to endure harsh conditions with an impressive IP55 dust and water resistance rating.
Obstacle Sensing for Safe Operation
The Obstacle Sensing Module [4] for Matrice 4D/4TD combines rotating LiDAR and millimeter-wave radar technologies for precise 12mm wire-level obstacle avoidance at speeds up to 15 m/s in complex power line crossings, as well as enhanced positioning in low-light conditions. [5] Operational safety are ensured for varying environments of power distribution network and the intricate layouts of substations.[15]
Excels in Low-Light Environments
Matrice 4D Series drones feature four high-resolution, low-light fisheye lenses, significantly enhancing [11] visual low-light positioning and obstacle sensing capabilities. The new Night Scene mode offers full-color night vision. Matrice 4TD additionally provides IR-Cut Filter feature for black-and-white night vision and 24/7 operations, as well as a new NIR auxiliary light that can cover distances up to 100 m. [10]
Matrice 4TD’s infrared thermal camera supports the UHR Infrared Image mode with image resolutions up to 1280 × 1024 and a High-Res mode for detailed temperature readings.
Clear Vision and Stable Images
Matrice 4D Series drones are equipped with medium tele and tele cameras with foreground stabilization. The medium tele camera is effective for medium-range inspections, detecting pins and cracks from 10 meters, and clearly reading instrument data at substations. [16]
The 48 MP tele camera captures details, like signs, from up to 250 m away. [17] When using Matrice 4TD’s tele camera as the aircraft is hovering in a windless environment, the gimbal can tilt upwards by 80 degrees, making bridge underside defects clearly visible.
Upgraded stabilization keeps foreground subjects clear during telephoto shots at 10x zoom or higher.
High-Precision Surveying
Matrice 4D Series drones excel in high-precision mapping, offering a new 5-direction oblique photography function, 3-direction orthophoto photography, [5][18], and real-time terrain following to meet various mapping requirements.
DJI FlightHub 2 has been upgraded for Matrice 4D/4TD operations. This upgrade introduces a range of flight route planning options, including Smart 3D Capture routes [5], geometric routes, and slope routes, enhancing efficiency while ensuring detailed modeling.
Seamless Airborne Relay for Mountainous Terrains
Matrice 4D Series can operate with the DJI RC Plus 2 Enterprise remote controller for standalone use while featuring an innovative onboard relay function. With this setup, one drone can fly high as a relay, allowing another drone to operate at a greater distance. The relay drone automatically faces the operating drone, [5] ensuring smooth video transmission without a 4G signal or in obstructed conditions. [19] This capability significantly extends the transmission range, making it ideal for SAR tasks and inspections in mountainous areas.
