Building and roof inspections done with a thermal camera equipped drone takes minutes and can be done on your schedule. Forget spending hours on a ladder with a hand-held camera, or thousands of dollars on a single survey from a full-sized aircraft. When mounted on a drone the Zenmuse XT is the perfect tool for identifying moisture and poor insulation issues as well as roofing problems.
The camera provides high-sensitivity (50mK) infrared scanning. This sensitivity provides accurate temperature measurements ideal for analytics and telemetry. The camera is available with four lens options to meet a variety of needs. Stabilized and controlled by a custom DJI gimbal, it provides smooth, clear imagery and 360 degrees of seamless rotational movement.
For search and rescue operators, it offers valuable observation capabilities in dangerous environments when time is critical. When mounted on a drone the operator has increased support to assess the scene from an aerial perspective with the ability to see through smoke, and keep track of their personnel in large fire scenes.
Features
Applications
DJI's Zenmuse gimbal technology has become the industry standard among demanding aerial cinematographers, and everything that makes DJI's aerial platforms world-class for cinematography also makes them the perfect platforms for aerial thermal imaging: they're stable, easy to fly, and fully-integrated with apps.
When you get right down to it, the main purpose of any drone is to position a sensor in three-dimensional space; when that sensor is a FLIR thermal imager, you expand the possibilities for drone operators and thermal inspectors alike. Using FLIR thermal imaging from small drones brings new capabilities to dozens of applications like search and rescue, the inspection of power lines, cell towers, bridges, substations, and buildings, firefighting, precision agriculture, and natural resource and wildlife protection.


When used with either the Inspire 1 or the Matrice 100, the Zenmuse XT can be put into the air in seconds. It is seamlessly integrated, giving it complete access to key features including the powerful Lightbridge video transmission system (providing up to 3.1 miles (5KM) of HD range), automated Point of Interest, Course and Home Lock, Follow Me, and the DJI SDK.
When combined with the Inspire 1, the Zenmuse XT works with incredible speed, efficiency and convenience. If used with the Matrice 100, the Zenmuse XT can stay in-flight for up to 35 minutes, ideal for large scale inspections and especially useful in search and rescue scenarios.
