THE CHALLENGES OF FLYING DJI MAVIC 3 DRONES IN THE DARK
Drone pilots face substantial difficulties when utilizing DJI Mavic 3 drones in nighttime or low-light missions. The darkness hinders the ability to see, capture visual data with colors, and make real-time decisions. Lack of visibility increases the risk of collisions with hazards such as powerlines and trees. These challenges jeopardize the safety of drone operations and the effectiveness of emergency response efforts.
Existing drone lighting solutions for DJI Mavic 3 have critical limitations that hinder efficient nighttime mission sets:
- Fixed Light Angle: For fixed light solutions, pilots often must pre-set drone light angles. A misjudgment means recalling the drone for adjustment, wasting time and affecting efficiency.
- Insufficient Brightness: Many drone lights can’t illuminate past 50 feet in altitude with full field of view, restricting the camera’s vision and operational range in darkness. Additionally, the payload-SDK-port (PSDK) on enterprise drones lacks the power to deliver high-intensity brightness levels.
- Lack of 90-degree Downward Angle: Some lights can’t point straight down or illuminate the whole field of view, hindering tasks like mapping or direct data capture beneath the drone.
- Mounting Delays: Attaching certain lights can take valuable time, delaying immediate emergency responses.
- High Costs: Many efficient solutions involve investing in costly professional drones with lights, ground lighting, or renting helicopters, but these can introduce financial strain and may not always be readily available for immediate deployment, potentially affecting response times.
Addressing these limitations is crucial to enhance situational awareness, safety and efficiency during missions in the dark.
The world’s brightest drone light designed for the DJI Mavic 3-enterprise. Unleash the power of 10,000 lumens brightness to overcome the challenges of nighttime missions.
Say goodbye to vision constraints and elevate to an era where unparalleled situational awareness, utmost safety, and increased efficiency lead the way.
For public safety professionals, inspection teams, and commercial pilots, this is the ultimate drone lighting solution. It not only elevates illumination standards but is also a cost-effective alternative to larger drones with lighting, helicopter usage, or less efficient third-party lights.
KEY FEATURES
Powerful 10,000 Lumens Brightness: This is the world’s brightest light for the DJI Mavic 3 enterprise It provides unparalleled illumination exactly where you need it. This empowers your mission to see the big picture in the dark, like in broad daylight.
Choose the battery that fits your mission: The Matrix 10 harnesses power from both the drone and an external battery. The external battery acts as a booster, enabling an output of 10,000 lumens. The drone’s power alone cannot achieve this level of brightness. The duration of the boost depends on the size of the external battery.
For operations requiring brief bursts of bright light, a small and lightweight external battery is ideal. For continuous light during extended operations, we offer a larger external battery option. The external battery recharges in-flight when the light is turned off.
Perfectly Designed for DJI Mavic 3 enterprise: The lightweight slim design makes this to a tool that you alway carry on.
Robust and Reliable: The Tundra Drone Matrix 10 is designed with durability in mind, being both dust and water repellent. Engineered using robust materials and high-quality components, it’s built to last. Furthermore, its design and mounting system ensure minimal maintenance across countless operations.
BENEFITS
Save Lives: Improve nighttime search and rescue capabilities, boosting your team’s ability to respond to emergencies swiftly.
Improve Safety: Optimally illuminate scenes from the air, enhancing your team’s situational awareness after dark. This aerial lighting not only makes your missions safer but also aids in identifying victims, potential threats, and hazards like powerlines and trees during emergency response.
Maximize Return on Investment (ROI): Enhanced visibility in the dark improves safety, which in turn speeds up target location and situation assessment, leading to quicker emergency response. These improvements contribute to increased mission success and a higher ROI, thanks to more efficient resource use and reduced field time.
Consistent Visual Data Quality: The light ensures reliable, high-quality visual data capture with true colors during nighttime operations. This clarity leads to more accurate assessments and confident decision-making in real-time or after the mission is completed.
Extend Operational Hours by 12: The bright illumination enables extended operational hours into the nighttime, maximizing effectiveness and increasing mission success rates.
Effortless Integration: The light’s intuitive design mean minimal training and immediate integration into nighttime operations.
Save up to $27,500 per Drone Kit[1]: No need to invest in expensive professional drones with lighting.
APPLICATIONS IN THE DARK
The Tundra Drone Matrix 10 is designed for professionals who need to be equipped for missions in dark and low-light conditions, such as:
