DJI Dock 3: The Ultimate Solution for Daily Remote Operations

DJI continues to redefine enterprise drone technology with the launch of DJI Dock 3, a cutting-edge "Drone in a Box" solution designed for round-the-clock remote operations. Featuring the high-performance DJI Matrice 4D and DJI Matrice 4TD drones, this latest innovation supports vehicle-mounted deployments and adapts seamlessly to various environments. Whether it's public safety, emergency response, or infrastructure inspection, DJI Dock 3 sets a new benchmark for autonomous drone solutions.

Built for Extreme Conditions

DJI Dock 3 is engineered to perform under the toughest conditions. It operates in temperatures as high as 50°C (122°F) and as low as -30°C (-22°F) with a pre-heating function, ensuring reliability in extreme weather. Its IP56-rated dust and water resistance safeguard internal components, making it a dependable choice for challenging environments.

Accompanying the dock, the Matrice 4D and 4TD drones feature low-noise, anti-ice propellers, allowing stable flights even in freezing rain and winds up to 12 meters per second. This level of resilience ensures that critical operations can proceed without interruptions.

Flexible Deployment & Long-Distance Operations

One of the standout features of DJI Dock 3 is its versatile deployment options. It supports vehicle-mounted setups for mobile missions and fixed deployments for long-term operations. For mobile use, DJI has introduced horizontal calibration and cloud-based dock location calibration, ensuring accurate positioning. Even more impressively, dual docks can be deployed on a single vehicle for continuous drone rotations, maximizing efficiency.

For fixed installations, the D-RTK 3 Relay Fixed Deployment Version enhances anti-interference performance, improving video transmission stability and satellite signal acquisition.

Introducing the DJI Matrice 4D & 4TD Drones

The DJI Matrice 4D and 4TD drones take performance to the next level with IP55-rated dust and water resistance and extended flight times of 54 minutes (forward flight) and 47 minutes (hovering). Equipped with multiple cameras, including a wide-angle camera, medium tele camera, tele camera, and Laser Range Finder, these drones provide superior imaging for a wide range of applications.

Matrice 4D: Precision Mapping & Inspections

Designed for high-precision mapping and surface inspections, the Matrice 4D boasts:

• 24mm wide camera (4/3 CMOS, f/2.8-f/11, 20MP) with a mechanical shutter

• 70mm medium tele camera (1/1.3-inch CMOS, f/2.8, 48MP)

• 168mm tele camera (1/1.5-inch CMOS, f/2.8, 48MP)

Paired with FlightHub 2, the Matrice 4D's auto-zoom capabilities make it easy to track moving targets like vehicles or vessels.

Matrice 4TD: Thermal Imaging & Night Vision

For public safety, emergency response, and infrastructure inspections, the Matrice 4TD includes:

• Infrared thermal camera for temperature anomaly detection

• NIR auxiliary light with 100m coverage for enhanced visibility

• 24mm wide camera (1/1.3-inch CMOS, f/1.7, 48MP)

• Same tele and medium tele cameras as the Matrice 4D

With full-color night vision and IR-Cut Filter black-and-white night vision, the Matrice 4TD provides exceptional clarity in low-light scenarios.

Expanding Operational Range with Airborne Relay

DJI introduces a game-changing airborne relay function with the DJI RC Plus 2 Enterprise controller. This setup allows one drone to act as a relay, extending the operational range of another even without a 4G signal or in obstructed environments. This feature is invaluable for search and rescue missions and mountainous inspections.

New Accessories for Enhanced Functionality

DJI Dock 3 is compatible with an array of accessories designed to optimize efficiency:

• Obstacle Sensing Module: Uses LiDAR and millimeter-wave radar for precise navigation in complex environments like power grids.

• Gimbal-Following Spotlight (DJI AL1 SpotLight): Illuminates subjects up to 100 meters away, following the camera's movement.

• Real-Time Voice Speaker (DJI AS1 Speaker): Broadcasts messages up to 300 meters away, supporting text-to-speech and media imports.

• Third-Party Payloads: Supports parachutes, specialized sensors, and additional tools via FlightHub 2 and the E-Port system.

The Future of Autonomous Drone Operations

With DJI Dock 3, DJI is pushing the limits of autonomous drone operations, offering an all-in-one solution for industries that rely on rapid, efficient, and adaptable aerial monitoring. Whether it's enhancing emergency response, improving infrastructure inspections, or supporting public safety missions, DJI Dock 3 and the Matrice 4D Series are shaping the future of enterprise drone technology.
