DJI Manifold 3 for DJI Matrice 400

DJI Manifold 3

Edge AI Computing for Drone-Based Applications

Manifold 3 delivers up to 100 TOPS of AI computing power in a compact, lightweight form factor. Weighing just 120 grams, it’s designed for seamless integration with the DJI Matrice 400 drone platform, unlocking advanced capabilities for flight control, gimbal coordination, and real-time data processing. Whether you're building solutions for energy inspections, public safety, or industrial automation, Manifold 3 offers the flexibility and performance needed to power next-generation drone applications.

High Performance, Compact Design

Despite its small size, Manifold 3 is equipped with powerful onboard computing—including GPU and DLA acceleration—to support demanding algorithm models. It enhances drone efficiency while maintaining minimal impact on flight time, making it ideal for time-sensitive or compute-intensive missions.

Rugged and Reliable for Harsh Environments

Built to perform in challenging conditions, Manifold 3 holds an IP55 rating and operates reliably in temperatures ranging from -20° to 50° C (-4° to 122° F). Its advanced thermal design ensures stable performance at 25 W even in high-temperature environments up to 40° C.

Seamless Integration with PSDK V3

Manifold 3 is fully compatible with DJI’s Payload Software Development Kit (PSDK V3), enabling efficient communication with onboard sensors and access to hardware video codecs for high-speed video streaming. Developers can overlay LiDAR point clouds with AR visuals in the DJI Pilot 2 app or integrate custom payloads with ease.

Flexible Software and App Development

Third-party apps can now be installed and upgraded locally via DJI Pilot 2, using a smartphone-like interface—no command lines or complex dependencies required. Developers can build and deploy their own software tools across a range of use cases, from AI-based object detection to autonomous workflows.

Expanded Connectivity and Open Architecture

The onboard USB 3.0 Type-C port with Power Delivery supports a variety of external devices, such as sensors, USB drives, and NICs. Combined with PSDK-enabled 4G networking, developers benefit from low-latency communications and the ability to create robust, real-time applications.
