Drones have become a game-changer in industries like security, infrastructure monitoring, and emergency response. But until now, their operations have been limited by deployment challenges and environmental conditions. Enter DJI Dock 3—a breakthrough solution that takes drone operations to a whole new level with its durability, automation, and intelligent features.
Built for Any Environment
DJI Dock 3 is designed to handle extreme weather, working in temperatures from 50°C (122°F) down to -30°C (-22°F). Even in strong winds up to 12 meters per second, drones can stay in the air for 32 minutes, ensuring reliable performance in both summer and winter.
One of its biggest innovations is vehicle-mounted deployment—a first for DJI. With dual docks on a single vehicle, drones can take off instantly when needed, making it perfect for emergency situations or large-area operations. A single drone can fly for 54 minutes in one direction or operate within a 10 km radius for 18 minutes, giving operators more flexibility and control.
For those who prefer a fixed-location setup, DJI offers an improved DRTK3 Relay Fixed Deployment version. This ensures stronger signal quality even in cities with tall buildings or near communication towers, making operations more stable and reliable.
Smarter Drones, Better Performance
The Matrice 4D series drones are designed to work seamlessly with DJI RC Plus 2 Enterprise for manual operation. One of the coolest features? Relay mode, where one drone hovers in place as a signal relay while another flies out further. This makes cross-mountain inspections as easy as checking a flat field.
For detailed inspections, drones now come with an obstacle-sensing module, allowing them to navigate complex environments like substations and power lines with ease. They also feature high-speed, wire-level obstacle avoidance, making power line inspections safer and more efficient.
When it comes to visibility, these drones deliver. Enhanced stabilization means they can focus on a pin 10 meters away or a sign 250 meters in the distance—all in crystal-clear quality. Night Scene Mode takes this even further, providing full-color and black-and-white night vision. The built-in NIR auxiliary light extends visibility up to 100 meters, while the infrared thermal camera helps detect heat sources, making rescue operations much more effective.
A New Level of Automation
DJI Dock 3 is packed with intelligent features that make drone operations smoother and more efficient. The Matrice 4D series supports five-directional capture and terrain-following, meaning it can handle rough terrain as easily as flat land. The drones automatically collect data to create 3D models in Flight Hub 2, making tasks like mapping and inspections a breeze.
A new automated flight route feature lets drones run inspections on their own, spotting infrared temperature anomalies and marking precise geographic locations. Operators can set up no-go zones, and the drones can even detect and record moving objects like vehicles and boats automatically.
A standout feature is Intelligent Change Detection, which tracks and analyzes changes in a given area over time. This is perfect for industries like construction, security, and environmental monitoring.
Always Ready, Anytime, Anywhere
With 24/7, all-weather capabilities, DJI Dock 3 ensures uninterrupted performance, no matter the situation. Whether for security, emergency response, or infrastructure monitoring, this system offers a new standard in smart, reliable, and automated drone operations.
The future of drone technology is here—and it’s smarter, safer, and more powerful than ever before.
