Recently leaked specifications reveal that the rumored DJI Matrice 4 enterprise platform will be available in two distinct configurations – the Matrice 4 Enterprise and Matrice 4 Thermal – each tailored for specific industrial and commercial drone applications. The information comes from reliable industry watcher Igor Bogdanov, AKA @Quadro_News.



DJI Matrice 4 Model Differentiation
The key distinction between the two DJI Matrice 4 variants lies in their sensor configurations:
DJI Matrice 4 Enterprise:
- Primary focus on high-resolution visible light imaging
- Three-camera visible light system optimized for inspection and surveillance
- Standard night operation capabilities
DJI Matrice 4 Thermal:
- Enhanced thermal imaging capabilities
- Integrated temperature sensing and calibration
- Advanced night operation features with infrared illumination
- Additional thermal sensor while maintaining the three-camera visible system
Advanced Camera Systems
Both models share a sophisticated triple-camera array:
- Wide-angle: 1/1.3″ CMOS sensor, 48MP, f/1.7, 24mm equivalent
- Medium-range: 1/1.3″ CMOS sensor, 48MP, f/2.8, 70mm equivalent
- Telephoto: 1/1.5″ CMOS sensor, 48MP, f/2.8, 168mm equivalent with 112x hybrid zoom
The Enterprise Thermal adds:
- Thermal imaging camera with 1/1.0″ sensor
- 53mm equivalent focal length
- High-resolution thermal imaging (1280 × 1024)
- Real-time temperature calibration
- Super-resolution thermal mode support
- Infrared fill light with 6° field of view and 328-foot illumination range


Precision Measurement
Both variants feature an advanced laser ranging module offering:
- Vertical range measurement up to 5,906 feet (1 Hz)
- Oblique range detection up to 1,969 feet (1 Hz)
- Minimum range of 3.3 feet
- Precision accuracy of 0.2 + 0.0015 D meters
Common AI Platform
Both DJI Matrice 4 variants incorporate sophisticated AI capabilities:

- Third-party AI model integration support
- Multiple intelligent flight modes including look-at, fly-to, orbit, and follow functions
- Advanced visual positioning for GNSS-denied environments
Enterprise Applications
The dual-model approach targets different industry needs:
DJI Matrice 4 Enterprise:
- Infrastructure inspection
- Mapping and surveying
- Security and surveillance
- Construction monitoring
DJI Matrice 4 Thermal:
- Search and Rescue operations
- Firefighting
- Industrial inspection
- Heat loss analysis
- Night operations
- Emergency response
Both DJI Matrice 4 drone models maintain stable flight in challenging conditions through advanced obstacle avoidance systems and robust positioning technology, operating effectively even in GNSS-compromised environments like urban canyons or under infrastructure.
Performance Features
Common to both variants:
- Visual positioning system for GNSS-denied environments
- O4 transmission system with extended range
- 4G connectivity integration
- D-RTK 3 relay signal support
- Rapid ascent and descent capabilities
- Enhanced stability in complex electromagnetic environments
- Ability to carry additional payloads such as spotlights
The rumored DJI Matrice 4 drone series represents DJI’s most advanced, small enterprise platform to date, with each variant optimized for specific industrial applications while maintaining core performance capabilities across the platform.
