Matrice 4DT Overview:

Designed specifically for the DJI Dock 3, the DJI Matrice 4TD is a rugged, high-performance enterprise drone built for automated inspections, public safety, emergency response, and around-the-clock remote operations. Featuring an IP55 rating, up to 54 minutes of flight time, a 10 km maximum operating radius with DJI Dock 3, and integrated RTK positioning, the Matrice 4TD delivers reliable performance in demanding environments.

The Matrice 4TD features an advanced multi-sensor camera system consisting of a 48 MP wide-angle camera, 48 MP medium tele camera, 48 MP tele camera, and 640 × 512 thermal camera. The thermal camera supports UHR Infrared Image mode at up to 1280 × 1024 @ 30fps, while the tele camera provides up to 112× hybrid zoom. An integrated laser rangefinder offers measurements at distances up to 1,800 m, while an NIR auxiliary light enhances visibility during nighttime operations. Combined with omnidirectional obstacle sensing and enhanced low-light capabilities, the Matrice 4TD is well suited for Drone as First Responder (DFR), infrastructure inspections, emergency response, government operations, and security applications.
