DJI Dock 3 Delivers "Drone in a Box" Enterprise Solution For 24/7 Remote Operations

DJI, the global leader in civil drones and creative camera technology, today launches DJI Dock 3, the company's first "Drone in a Box" solution that supports vehicle mounting, empowering 24/7 remote operations for various environments. Meeting the needs for public safety, emergency response, and infrastructure inspection, DJI Dock 3 comes with the all-new DJI Matrice 4D or DJI Matrice 4TD drone. Expanding on the recently launched DJI Matrice 4 Series, these new enterprise drones offer improved flight and protection performance.

Adaptable to Extreme Environments

Designed for critical operations in extreme conditions, DJI Dock 3 can operate and charge seamlessly in extreme temperatures up to 50°C (122°F) and as low as -30°C (-22°F) when pre-heated. Its design further safeguards its internal system with an exceptional IP56 dust and water-resistant rating. The accompanying Matrice 4D and 4TD come standard with low-noise anti-ice propellers that can quietly maintain a stable flight even in freezing rain and wind as strong as 12 meters per second.

Flexible Deployment, Ultra-Long Transmission

DJI Dock 3 can flexibly support emergency operations and long-distance inspections. Optimized for vehicle-mounted deployments for the first time, it supports horizontal calibration and cloud-based dock location calibrations. For higher efficiency, two docks can be simultaneously deployed on a single vehicle for dual-drone rotations. For fixed-mounted deployments, a new D-RTK 3 Relay Fixed Deployment Version* can be added to enhance the dock's anti-interference performance for video transmission and satellite acquisition.

High-Performance DJI Matrice 4D and 4TD

The all-new DJI Matrice 4D and 4TD drones feature IP55-rated dust and water resistance and an extended 54 minutes of forward-flight time and 47 minutes of hovering. Both drones are equipped with a wide-angle camera, a medium tele camera, a tele camera, and a Laser Range Finder. The Night Scene mode offers full-color night vision, and the 4TD offers additional IR-Cut Filter features for black-and-white night vision.

• Matrice 4D is designed for high-precision mapping and detailed surface inspections. It features a 24mm wide camera (4/3 CMOS, f/2.8-f/11, 20MP) with a mechanical shutter, a 70mm medium tele camera (1/1.3-inch CMOS, f/2.8, 48MP), and a 168mm tele camera (1/1.5-inch CMOS, f/2.8, 48MP). When paired with FlightHub 2, operators can use the drone's powerful auto-zoom to quickly track a subject, such as a vehicle or vessel.
• Matrice 4TD is equipped with an infrared thermal camera and a new NIR auxiliary light with 100 meters of coverage for public safety, emergency response, and infrastructure inspections. It features the same tele camera and medium tele camera as the Matrice 4D but a smaller 24mm wide camera (1/1.3-inch CMOS, f/1.7, 48MP).

Seamless Airborne Relay

With the DJI RC Plus 2 Enterprise remote controller, the Matrice 4D Series can fly standalone or with an innovative onboard relay function. This setup allows one drone to fly as a relay, extending the operational range of another drone - even without a 4G signal or in obstructed conditions. This ability can be especially critical during search and rescue missions or inspections in mountainous areas.

Other New Accessories for Comprehensive Support

• Obstacle Sensing Module: For more precise maneuvering in complex environments such as 12mm power grid line wires and intricate substation layouts, an Obstacle Sensing Module* can be added to equip the Matrice 4D/4TD with LiDAR and millimeter-wave radar technology.
• Gimbal-Following Spotlight: The DJI AL1 SpotLight can illuminate subjects up to 100 meters away. When connected with the gimbal, the spotlight can follow the camera's movements to illuminate the camera's view.
• Real-Time Voice Speaker: The DJI AS1 Speaker can broadcast up to 300 meters away, up to 114 decibels at a distance of 1 meter. It supports recorded messages, media imports, and text-to-speech conversion.
• Third-Party Payloads: DJI Enterprise has significantly expanded its product capabilities by enabling the connection of third-party payloads, including parachutes via the aircraft's E-Port, or remotely controlling added payloads via FlightHub 2. It also features an additional port for PSDK payload at the rear.

Intelligent Aerial Operation for Efficient Remote Missions

Pairing DJI Dock 3 with DJI FlightHub 2 further enhances the intelligence and efficiency of remote operations with automated flight routes. Once a flight route is established via intelligent settings, the drone can automatically detect and capture images or videos of vehicles, vessels, and detect infrared temperature anomalies and send notifications to the operators. A new intelligent change detection feature efficiently provides operators with a periodical analysis of changes in an area - critical for environmental protection and responding to natural disasters. Furthermore, the refreshed interface for the Virtual Cockpit allows operators to adjust the drone's altitude and gimbal orientation remotely with the new Mouselook feature, enabling rapid and precise centering of the frame, thus achieving "point and see".

Industry-Leading Data Security and Regulatory Compliance

DJI places the highest priority on data privacy – and puts customers in control of their data's use. No flight logs, photos, or videos are synced with DJI by default. Operators must opt-in to share or store their data on DJI servers, which are housed in US-based AWS servers certified compliant with ISO 27001. For heightened data security needs or those flying sensitive missions, Local Data Mode can be activated to stop the DJI Pilot 2 flight control app from sending or receiving any data over 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's Flight Termination System (FTS) module is a key technical requirement for C6 compliance, providing the Matrice 4D Series an additional level of safety for an organization's operation on strictly regulated airspace. FTS can be manually triggered to stop the drone's propellers during operation or automatically triggered when the drone breaches the Geocaging boundary, promptly terminating the flight.
