 Key enhancements from Dock 1 to Dock 2

• Compact design: DJI Dock 2 showcases a reduction in size and weight, weighing in at only 34kg and occupying a mere 0.34m^2. This evolution marks a significant step towards better portability and deployment flexibility.
• Boosted performance metrics: The introduction of a 50-minute maximum flight duration and a 10 km reach marks a considerable improvement in its operational capabilities, enhancing its efficiency and service area.
• Advanced surveying features: It integrates a 20MP high-resolution surveying camera (parallel to the M3E model) with the M3D variant, paving the way for groundbreaking applications in sectors like construction management, mining operations, and others through its precise surveying and mapping functionalities.
• Increased cost-efficiency: Dock 2 is designed with an eye on affordability, offering cost reductions in both hardware acquisition and ongoing operational expenditures.

Aircraft compatibility

DJI Dock 2 seamlessly integrates with two specialized aircraft models: the DJI Matrice 3 dock version (M3D) and its thermal counterpart, the DJI Matrice 3 thermal dock version (M3TD).

These models are equipped with distinct camera configurations to address specific operational needs—M3D for high-fidelity surveying and mapping, and M3TD for tasks in public safety and inspections.

Software integration and SDK/API support

The device maintains full compatibility with the DJI FlightHub 2 platform while supporting Cloud API for easy integration with third-party cloud services. Its E-Port functionality on M3D/M3TD models facilitates the attachment of alternative payloads, expanding its utility across various applications.

Application versatility

Thanks to the 20MP surveying camera on the M3D, similar to the M3E model, Dock 2 excels in high-precision mapping and surveying. It's ideally suited for monitoring construction sites, calculating earthworks, and overseeing disaster recovery efforts.

The M3TD, with its thermal and RGB cameras, is perfect for security patrols, emergency response scenarios, and automated inspections.

Technical upgrades and specifications

The new Dock has achieved a notable downsizing in both weight and dimensions compared to its predecessor, without compromising on performance and environmental adaptability.

It boasts a maximum takeoff altitude of 2500m, a 10km operational reach, and a quick 32-minute recharge time (from 20% to 90%).

Additionally, it introduces smart oblique photography capabilities, further enhancing its surveying and mapping accuracy.

DJI Matrice 3D overview

Equipped with advanced camera technology, the DJI Matrice 3D is designed to fulfill the requirements of various aerial imaging operations, particularly in combination with the DJI Dock 2.

Dual camera system

• Wide-angle camera

The Matrice 3D features an expansive view camera with a large 4/3 CMOS sensor, providing superior image quality and detail. Its 24mm equivalent lens captures broad views, making it perfect for comprehensive area mapping and panoramic imaging.

With a 20 megapixels resolution, it ensures detailed, high-resolution images for in-depth analysis. The mechanical shutter reduces motion blur, securing clear and focused images under various scenarios.

• Tele camera

The drone's zoom camera, with a 1/2-inch CMOS sensor, has a 162mm equivalent focal length.

Though smaller, it achieves exceptional sharpness and clarity at 12 megapixels, ideal for zoomed-in, precise imaging of distant objects.

The combination of these cameras enables the DJI Matrice 3D to perform outstandingly in diverse aerial photography tasks, from accurate mapping to thorough inspection activities.

Enhanced durability and precision

The DJI Matrice 3D is designed with an IP54 rating, signifying its robust dustproof and waterproof capabilities, which allow it to perform reliably in various environmental conditions. This level of protection ensures that the drone is not just versatile, but also durable over time.

Accompanying this durability is the drone's integrated RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) module, which significantly enhances its positioning accuracy to within ±3cm. Such precision is indispensable for detailed mapping, inspection tasks, and any application where exact positioning is crucial.

Operational efficiency and safety

With a maximum flight time of 50 minutes, it considerably extends the possible duration of aerial missions, reducing the need for frequent landings and battery changes.

This extended flight time, combined with a 10-km effective operating radius, enables comprehensive area coverage and the ability to conduct operations in remote or difficult-to-reach locations.

The inclusion of a 6-directional obstacle sensing system enhances the safety of the drone by providing it with the ability to detect and avoid obstacles in its path, thereby minimizing the risk of collisions.

Together, these features make the DJI Matrice 3D a highly efficient and safe tool for a wide range of professional applications, pushing the boundaries of what's possible with drone technology.

Next-level autonomous drone operations

Pairing the DJI Dock 2 with the DJI Matrice 3D drone significantly advance autonomous drone operations. This combination improves operational efficiency and extends the capabilities of drone technology in aerial monitoring, inspection, and data gathering.

It facilitates efficient remote missions and enhances autonomous flight features, allowing for their application in various industries, including agriculture and crisis management, with enhanced precision and dependability.

This integration is anticipated to further the evolution of autonomous drone operations, providing more effective and broadly accessible solutions for industries globally.
