In the rapidly advancing world of commercial drone technology, DJI continues to set the standard for innovation and enterprise readiness. With the official release of the DJI Matrice 4 Series, DJI introduces not just a new hardware platform, but a transformative leap into AI-powered aerial intelligence. The Matrice 4T and Matrice 4E are built for a wide range of industry applications — from public safety and infrastructure inspection to large-scale surveying and smart construction.

This new generation of drones combines multi-sensor versatility, real-time data intelligence, and edge AI computing to redefine what enterprises can achieve with unmanned aerial systems (UAS).


Built for Smart Operations

Both Matrice 4T and Matrice 4E are equipped with:

  • Laser Range Finder capable of measuring distances up to 1,800 meters
  • AI Object Recognition and smart detection models for real-time situational awareness
  • Multi-camera payloads, including thermal imaging, wide-angle RGB, and high-zoom telephoto lenses
  • Electronic Dehazing and Night Mode, enabling operations in fog, haze, and low-light scenarios

These upgrades are more than technical specs — they are mission-critical enhancements that address the growing demand for smarter, safer, and faster data collection across sectors. According to PwC’s “Clarity from Above”, drones equipped with smart sensors are expected to generate $127 billion in value across infrastructure, transport, and agriculture industries alone.


Purpose-Built for Key Industries

The Matrice 4T is a true all-weather, all-mission platform tailored for:

  • Public safety and law enforcement
  • Search and rescue (SAR)
  • Energy utilities and emergency inspections
  • Environmental monitoring and forestry

Its 1280×1024 thermal resolution, high-res RGB sensors, and NIR auxiliary light allow it to operate with precision even in darkness or dense smoke.

The Matrice 4E, meanwhile, is engineered for:

  • Surveying and mapping
  • Construction and mining
  • Infrastructure assessment

It features a 4/3 CMOS wide-angle mapping camera with a mechanical shutter and Smart 3D Capture, delivering high-speed orthomosaic and oblique photogrammetry. Its 0.5-second interval capture rate enables orthophoto missions at up to 21 m/s, putting it among the fastest in its class.

These capabilities align with broader industry trends noted by McKinsey, which highlight that digitization, including the use of autonomous drones, can improve productivity by up to 20% on construction sites.


Intelligent Search and Rescue

AI enhancements in the Matrice 4 Series allow for fully automated FlyTo missions, which set dynamic flight paths to a missing person’s last known location while accounting for terrain and environmental complexity. The DJI Pilot 2 software overlays search areas on live maps, ensuring no ground is left unchecked — even in GPS-denied environments.

This level of autonomy and precision isn’t just convenient; it saves lives. According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), drones have reduced average SAR response times by up to 30 minutes — time that often means the difference between life and death.


Advanced Safety and Flight Control

With GNSS+Vision Fusion Positioning, electronic dehazing, and six low-light HD fisheye sensors, the Matrice 4 Series supports safe flight in urban, mountainous, or GPS-denied environments. Pilots can initiate takeoff in under 15 seconds and enjoy centimeter-level accuracy via D-RTK 3 support — even without cellular connectivity.

This is particularly crucial for operations in critical infrastructure protection, where signal jamming or natural obstructions may prevent conventional GPS-based flight.


Enterprise-Grade Data Security

Data protection has never been more critical. The Matrice 4 Series is built with security at its core:

  • No data is transmitted to DJI by default
  • Local Data Mode disables all external transmissions
  • AWS-based storage and AES-256 encryption meet the highest international standards, including ISO 27001 compliance
  • Verified through third-party audits, including Booz Allen Hamilton and FTI Consulting

This level of protection ensures even government and sensitive commercial operators can adopt DJI’s newest systems without compromising their compliance standards.


Accessories That Elevate Every Operation

The Matrice 4 Series launches alongside powerful accessories that extend its mission range:

  • DJI AL1 Spotlight – 100m illumination, always-on or strobe modes
  • DJI AS1 Speaker – 114 dB at 1 meter, broadcast range of 300m
  • D-RTK 3 Station – Signal relay, centimeter-level accuracy, GCP marking

When combined, these accessories empower responders and surveyors to cover wider areas, communicate better, and capture cleaner data — even in remote or hazardous locations.


Total Protection and Peace of Mind

DJI Care Enterprise Plus offers comprehensive coverage, including:

  • Unlimited free repairs within the coverage limit
  • Annual Flyaway Coverage
  • Official Extended Warranty
  • Priority technical support

Such service programs ensure that enterprise fleets experience maximum uptime and minimum operational disruption.


Conclusion: The Intelligent Future of Enterprise Drones

With the DJI Matrice 4 Series, the Age of Intelligent Flight is not just an aspiration — it’s a reality. Whether you are mapping complex urban terrain, conducting critical infrastructure inspections, or searching for survivors, these drones are purpose-built to empower faster, smarter, and safer outcomes.
