Flexible Deployment, Extended Transmission
DJI Dock 3 offers flexible deployment options, transforming operational paradigms. For fixed installations, signal quality can be improved by positioning the next-gen D-RTK 3 Relay at elevated locations, allowing for versatile dock placement. The new DJI Enterprise app enables deployment via just a smartphone. Additionally, for the first time, DJI Dock supports vehicle-mounted deployment, facilitating more efficient dispatch during urgent operations and long-distance inspections.
The new D-RTK 3 Relay Fixed Deployment Version [4] delivers enhanced anti-interference performance for video transmission and satellite acquisition. When installed at elevated locations, it effectively resolves RTK and video transmission signal issues caused by obstructions. This extends the maximum transmission distance to 25 km and allows for flexible site selection of Dock 3 based on actual operational needs.
Near High-Rise Buildings [30]
Mounting the D-RTK 3 Relay on rooftops can greatly improve signal quality, enabling the deployment of Dock 3 adjacent to high-rise buildings or substation walls.
IInstalling the D-RTK 3 Relay on a nearby communication tower can greatly enhance signal quality during Dock 3 operations, ensuring safe takeoffs and landings even in environments with interference from the communication tower.
Vehicle-mounted Mobile Deployment
DJI Dock 3 is DJI’s first Dock to support mobile vehicle-mounted deployment. [6] Optimized for this purpose, the Dock’s structure, components, and air conditioning have undergone vehicle vibration testing. It features horizontal calibration and cloud-based dock location calibration. For emergency operations or long-distance inspections, using the DJI Dock 3 Vehicle-Mounted Gimbal Mount for mobile deployment offers a convenient solution when fixed deployment is impractical in temporary scenarios.
Cloud-Based Dock Location Calibration
During mobile operations, indoor personnel can utilize DJI FlightHub 2 to remotely configure the dock’s location and assign tasks via the cloud, thereby improving personnel and scheduling efficiency.
Safe Dual-Dock Deployment
Two docks can be simultaneously deployed on a single vehicle, significantly boosting efficiency. DJI Dock 3 uses a unique take-over pattern to prevent drone-to-drone collisions and ensure operational safety, allowing the two docks to alternate tasks in an organized manner.
Dual-Drone Rotation [5]
Automated hovering rotation of two drones allows for continuous real-time aerial footage transmission. In emergency situations, a spotlight can be added to provide continuous illumination.
The new water and dust-resistant DJI Matrice 4D and DJI Matrice 4TD are designed specifically for DJI Dock 3, offering extended flight time and compatibility with DJI RC Plus 2 Enterprise for standalone use. Both drones feature a wide-angle camera, a medium tele camera, a tele camera, and a Laser Range Finder. Matrice 4D excels in professional high-precision mapping and detailed surface inspections. Matrice 4TD, equipped with an infrared thermal camera and a new NIR auxiliary light, is ideal for various applications such as infrastructure inspections, emergency response, and public safety.

Safe Operation With Obstacle Detection
The Obstacle Sensing Module [4] for Matrice 4D/4TD integrates rotating LiDAR and millimeter-wave radar technologies to achieve precise 12mm wire-level obstacle avoidance at speeds up to 15 m/s in complex power line crossings. It also enhances positioning in low-light conditions [5], ensuring operational safety across diverse environments in power distribution networks and the intricate layouts of substations. [15]
Low-Light Environments
Matrice 4D Series drones are equipped with four high-resolution, low-light fisheye lenses, greatly enhancing [11] visual low-light positioning and obstacle sensing capabilities. The new Night Scene mode offers full-color night vision. Additionally, Matrice 4TD includes an IR-Cut Filter for black-and-white night vision and 24/7 operations, along with a new NIR auxiliary light that can illuminate distances up to 100 meters. Matrice 4TD’s infrared thermal camera supports UHR Infrared Image mode with resolutions up to 1280 × 1024 and a High-Res mode for detailed temperature readings.
Surveying
The Matrice 4D Series excels in high-precision mapping, providing a new 5-direction oblique photography function, 3-direction orthophoto photography, [5][18] and real-time terrain following to meet unique mapping requirements. DJI FlightHub 2 has been upgraded for Matrice 4D/4TD operations. This upgrade delivers a range of flight route planning options, including Smart 3D Capture routes [5], geometric routes, and slope routes, enhancing efficiency while ensuring detailed modeling.
Inspections
Both Matrice 4D Series drones are equipped with medium tele and tele cameras featuring foreground stabilization. The medium tele camera is effective for medium-range inspections, detecting pins and cracks from 10 meters, and reading instrument data at substations. [16] The 48 MP tele camera captures details from up to 250 m away. [17] When using Matrice 4TD’s tele camera while 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.
Airborne Relay For Mountainous Terrains
The Matrice 4D Series can operate with the DJI RC Plus 2 Enterprise remote controller for standalone use and features an innovative onboard relay function. In this setup, one drone flies high as a relay, enabling another drone to operate at a greater distance. The relay drone automatically aligns with the operating drone, [5] ensuring smooth video transmission without the need for 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.
Dock 3 greatly enhances the intelligence and efficiency of remote operations when paired with DJI FlightHub 2.
Automated Routes
The new automated flight route proves valuable in various scenarios, such as public safety and inspections. Once a flight route is established, the drone can automatically identify and capture images or videos of subjects like vehicles, vessels, and infrared temperature anomalies, and send notifications to the operators.
Intelligent Change Detection
The new intelligent change detection feature facilitates efficient periodic analysis of changes in an area, aiding operators in environmental protection, natural disaster relief, and crack detection. This enhances decision-making by making it more effective and informed.
Smart Track
Operators can leverage the Matrice 4D Series’ powerful auto-zoom capabilities to swiftly track subjects like vehicles or vessels, ensuring efficient follow-up review.
Virtual Cockpit
The Virtual Cockpit remote control interface has been significantly upgraded with the new Mouselook feature. This improvement enables the drone to automatically adjust its attitude and gimbal orientation, allowing for rapid and precise centering of the frame, thus achieving the “point and see” capability.
Efficient Operation
Opens and Flys
Quickly take off and arrive at the emergency site to enhance situational awareness. After enabling optimal route planning, use FlyTo Tasks to reach a designated point 1 km away and at an altitude of 100 meters within 100 seconds. [12]
Low-Latency Live View
The engine upgrade significantly reduces [11] live view latency on FlightHub 2, ensuring reliable support for real-time decision-making.
Transmit During Flight
In emergency scenarios, real-time data transmission and rapid modeling can be accomplished during flight. Data transfer can be completed immediately upon landing, [20] and a preliminary model can be quickly generated via the cloud, significantly boosting efficiency.
