Farming with Drones: Agricultural technology that's literally taking-off!

See More, Know More, Do More
At the heart of the Matrice 4T is a seriously impressive set of sensors:
- A wide-angle camera
- A 16× optical zoom (with up to 112× hybrid zoom)
- A high-res thermal sensor
- A laser rangefinder
Together, they give you a clear, detailed view of fields, livestock, wild ground, and more — all from above.
Let the AI Do the Heavy Lifting
One of the smartest features of the Matrice 4T is its teachable AI. It can identify, track, and even count animals, vehicles, and people — making it just as useful for security as it is for land management.
For estate managers, that could mean monitoring deer for cull planning or conservation. For farmers, it’s a game-changer for spotting crop stress, disease, or weed outbreaks early — all without setting foot in the field.
Whether you're flying manually or setting up automated flight paths on the screen, the drone can carry out regular scans and build up a detailed picture over time - saving hours of legwork.
