DJI Matrice 4E – RTK drone for inspection, surveying, and industrial applications

The DJI Matrice 4E is a compact enterprise drone developed for professional applications such as inspections, surveying, mapping, and infrastructure management . Thanks to an advanced multi-sensor camera system, AI-assisted features, and RTK positioning, this drone offers reliable data collection and accurate aerial analysis.

Camera system

The DJI Matrice 4E features an advanced multi-sensor camera module consisting of four components:

• Wide-angle camera

• Medium telephoto camera

• Telephoto camera

• Laser distance meter

This combination makes it possible to perform overview images, detailed inspections, and accurate distance measurements .

Wide-angle camera

The wide-angle camera is equipped with a 4/3 CMOS sensor with an effective resolution of 48 megapixels . This allows aerial images to be captured with high detail accuracy.

With a focal length of 24 mm and a variable aperture of f/2.8 to f/11, the camera is suitable for a wide range of lighting conditions and mapping applications.

This camera is primarily used for:

• aerial photography

• mapping and surveying

• site inspections

• infrastructure documentation

Medium Telephoto Camera

The medium telephoto camera offers an ideal perspective for inspections at medium distances.

The camera features:

• 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor

• 48 megapixel resolution

• 70 mm focal length

• f/2.8 aperture

This configuration makes it possible to accurately inspect objects without flying close to the infrastructure.

Typical applications are:

• industrial inspections

• inspection of infrastructure

• inspections of installations and buildings

Telephoto Camera

For long-distance inspections, the Matrice 4E features a powerful telephoto camera.

The camera is equipped with:

• 1/1.5-inch CMOS sensor

• 48 megapixel resolution

• 168 mm focal length

• f/2.8 aperture

This allows objects to be captured in detail at a great distance, which is essential for inspections of hard-to-reach infrastructure.

Suitable for:

• inspection of high-voltage lines

• industrial inspections

• security observations

• monitoring of infrastructure

Laser Range Finder

The integrated laser distance meter enables accurate distance measurements during inspections and mapping operations.

Key features:

• measuring range up to 1800 meters

• 600 meter range for oblique measurements

• minimum blind zone of 1 meter

The laser distance meter is used for:

• terrain mapping

• inspections

• distance determination for infrastructure

• precision analysis of objects

Intelligent operations with AI

The DJI Matrice 4E features an integrated AI detection system that can automatically identify objects during flight operations.

The system can detect, among other things:

• vehicles

• vessels

• persons

This functionality is used for:

• inspections

• monitoring operations

• search and rescue operations

In addition, the system supports high-resolution raster photography and advanced tracking capabilities.

Automated flight functions

The Matrice 4E features multiple intelligent flight modes that support professional operations.

Cruise

The drone can automatically maintain a preset flight direction without continuous joystick control.

This simplifies:

• long inspection flights

• mapping flights

• monitoring missions

FlyTo

During emergencies, the drone can automatically calculate a route and reach a pre-set location.

The flight parameters are automatically adjusted to the environment.

Smart Track

Smart Track ensures accurate tracking of a selected object. The camera automatically zooms in or out to keep the subject in frame.

The system can re-identify an object when it temporarily disappears from view.

Point of Interest (POI)

With POI, the drone can automatically fly around an object or area.

This is used for:

• 3D modeling

• infrastructure inspections

• building inspections

Obstacle detection and safety

The Matrice 4E is equipped with 6 fisheye sensors that detect obstacles in all directions.

This allows the drone to:

• automatically avoid obstacles

• operating safely in complex environments

• performing autonomous flights in urban areas or forests

RTK positioning and navigation

The Matrice 4 series features an integrated DJI RTK module with support for the L5 frequency band .

The GNSS + Vision Fusion Positioning System combines:

• GNSS signals

• visual positioning

• RTK corrections

The advantages of this are:

• centimeter-accurate positioning

• fast start within 15 seconds

• stable navigation in urban environments

Even when GNSS signals temporarily drop out, the drone can continue navigating safely.

DJI RC Plus 2 Enterprise controller

The Matrice 4E comes with the DJI RC Plus 2 Enterprise remote control .

Key features:

• clear screen that remains visible in direct sunlight

• IP54 protection

• operating temperature from -20°C to 50°C

The controller uses the O4 Enterprise video transmission system with a high-gain antenna array for stable connections.

O4 Enterprise video transmission

The Matrice 4E uses DJI O4 Enterprise transmission technology .

Key features:

• video transmission up to 20 km (EU up to 12 km)

• low latency connection

• stable video connection in complex environments

The system supports multi-channel video streaming , allowing multiple cameras to be viewed simultaneously.

Flight time
