Master All Environments

DJI Care Enterprise

FIXED-MOUNTED DEPLOYMENT

Near High-Rise Buildings

Mounting the D-RTK 3 Relay on rooftops significantly enhances signal strength, enabling Dock 3 to be deployed next to high-rise buildings or substation walls.

Near Communication Towers

Positioning the D-RTK 3 Relay on a nearby communication tower can significantly improve signal quality during Dock 3 operations, ensuring safe take-offs and landings even in areas affected by tower interference.

Mobile Vehicle-Mounted Deployment

DJI Dock 3 is the first in DJI’s product range to support mobile, vehicle-mounted deployment. Designed specifically for this purpose, its structure, components, and air-conditioning system have undergone rigorous testing to ensure resilience against vehicle vibrations.

New features—including horizontal calibration and cloud-based dock position calibration—further improve its adaptability across diverse environments.

For emergency response or long-range inspection missions, the DJI Dock 3 Vehicle-Mounted Gimbal Mount provides a reliable solution where fixed installations are not practical.

OPEN DEVELOPER ECOSYSTEM

Intelligent Algorithm Developer

Offers comprehensive model training tools and a certified third-party developer pathway, enabling access to onboard computing and supporting the creation of new drone applications.

PSDK

The upgraded E-Port V2 delivers USB 3.0 high-speed payload communication and up to 120 watts of power per port. Its E4 port can be expanded into four additional payload ports using the E-Port Hub expansion plate, unlocking wider application possibilities for the Matrice 400.

MSDK

Mobile SDK 5 streamlines app development for controlling the Matrice 400. It includes fully open-source, production-grade code samples based on core modules from DJI Pilot 2, ensuring robust and dependable performance.

Cloud API

With the Cloud API built into DJI Pilot 2 (MQTT-based), the Matrice 400 can connect directly to third-party cloud platforms, enabling access to drone hardware, live video streams, and captured images without creating a custom app.

Open Data Access

Developers can access payload, LiDAR, mmWave radar, and vision-sensor data interfaces, enabling the development of advanced applications and driving innovation within the DJI ecosystem.

APPLICATIONS

PUBLIC SAFETY

Drones enhance the capabilities of public safety agencies by improving response times, reducing operational costs, and supporting better decision-making—all while safeguarding personnel during critical operations.

BRIDGE INSPECTIONS

Drones fitted with high-resolution cameras can accurately inspect key bridge components, including decks, piers, and cables.

Using LiDAR technology, they quickly generate BIM and digital twin models, allowing for faster, more cost-effective assessments.

This advanced approach enables engineers, maintenance teams, and auditors to gain a clearer understanding of bridge conditions and proactively plan maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between DJI Dock 3 and DJI Dock 2?

DJI Dock 3 features improved IP56 weather resistance, wider operating temperature range (-30°C to 50°C), upgraded O4+ video transmission, and support for vehicle-mounted deployment.

How long does it take to recharge the drone for the next operation?

At 25°C ambient temperature, it takes approximately 27 minutes to charge the drone from 15% to 95%.

Can DJI Dock 3 automatically replace the drone’s battery?

No, DJI Dock 3 does not support automatic battery replacement.

Does DJI Dock 3 support multi-dock or multi-drone operations?

It supports one drone with multiple docks (multi-dock task), but not multiple drones with one dock.

Which drones are compatible with DJI Dock 3?

DJI Dock 3 is compatible with the DJI Matrice 4D Series, including the Matrice 4D and 4TD models.

Does DJI Dock 3 support edge computing?

Yes, but it requires an external power supply and network connection.

Can DJI Dock 3 operate in extreme weather conditions?

What precautions are needed for vehicle-mounted deployment?

Ensure stable power and network access, proper vibration testing, and environmental calibration. The dock must be securely mounted and configured using DJI FlightHub 2.
