DJI M400: Automatic power line detection
Video showing how the DJI M400 automatically detects power lines and displays them on the controller, thanks to the drone's enhanced obstacle-sensing system.
This video demonstrates the DJI M400's ability to automatically detect power lines during flight - highlighting their position and distance from the aircraft.
Utilising Smart AR projection functionality, the drone's obstacle sensing system picks up front wire obstacles and displays easily-recognisible AR lines on the remote controller's screen.
This makes the surrounding environment clear at a glance, ensuring safer flights during general missions, as well as tasks such as utilities inspections.
The DJI M400's advanced obstacle sensing system integrates rotating LiDAR, high-precision mmWave radar, and full-colour low-light fisheye vision sensors. This safety suite equips the M400 with power-line-level obstacle sensing.
