DJI Matrice 4T is the thermal variant of DJI’s Matrice 4 Series—an AI‑enabled, compact enterprise quadcopter built around an integrated multi‑sensor gimbal for day/night operations, inspections, public safety, and SAR. It combines three high‑resolution RGB cameras (wide, medium‑tele, and tele), a 640×512 VOx thermal camera with High‑Res Mode up to 1280×1024, a laser range finder, and an NIR auxiliary light, and it flies on the O4 Enterprise link with the DJI RC Plus 2 Enterprise controller. The Matrice 4 Series (4T and 4E) was officially introduced on January 8, 2025. (enterprise.dji.com)
