Description
DJI Manifold 3: Onboard Computing for Efficient Mission Workflows
Manifold 3 is a high-performance onboard computing module built to extend the capabilities of DJI enterprise drone platforms, including the Matrice 400, Matrice 4 Series, and Matrice 4D Series. Delivering up to 100 TOPS of computing performance in a lightweight 120 g (0.26 lb) package, it enables advanced AI inference, real-time data processing, and custom application execution directly on the aircraft.
With PSDK V3 compatibility, native hardware codec support, and streamlined application deployment through DJI Pilot 2, Manifold 3 supports professional developers and operators building advanced inspection, mapping, and public safety workflows.
Key Features and Benefits
- High-performance onboard computer for DJI enterprise aircraft
- Platform compatibility: Matrice 400, Matrice 4D, and Matrice 4 Series aircraft.
- Offers 100 TOPS (INT8) processing performance
- Supports DJI Onboard SDK v5.0 and Payload SDK v3.6
- Lightweight (~120 g) for balanced installation
- Power efficient up to 33 W under load
- Reliable from –20 °C to 60 °C in industrial conditions
- Multiple interfaces: USB 3.2, HDMI, Ethernet, UART, CAN
- Passive cooling for thermal stability
- Integrated 16 GB RAM and 256 GB SSD (region specific)
Designed for airborne integration and operational efficiency
Manifold 3 is engineered to deliver significant computing power without compromising aircraft performance. Its compact form factor and 120 g (0.26 lb) weight allow it to be installed on supported platforms with minimal impact on center of gravity and flight time. By enabling onboard processing, Manifold 3 reduces data latency and reliance on post-flight analysis. This approach supports faster decision-making in the field, particularly for inspection and public safety missions where immediate insights are critical.
Environmental durability for professional field operations
Built for real-world deployment, Manifold 3 features an IP55 ingress protection rating and wide operating temperature tolerance. DJI specifies operation from −20° to 50° C (−4° to 122° F), allowing use in both cold and hot environments. Its thermal design supports stable operation at 25 W in ambient temperatures up to 40° C (104° F). These characteristics make Manifold 3 suitable for industrial inspection, infrastructure monitoring, and emergency response scenarios.
Compatibility and Integration
- Compatible with Matrice 400, Matrice 4D, and Matrice 4 Series
- Connects through E-Port V2 (E1/E2/E3) for power and data link
- Supports DJI Onboard SDK v5.0 and Payload SDK v3.6
- Works with DJI Pilot 2 and FlightHub 2 for system integration
- Enables application deployment for enterprise operations
Applications and Use Cases
- Real-time data processing onboard the aircraft
- Application integration using DJI SDK frameworks
- Research and educational development projects
- Industrial inspection and automated data collection
- Mapping and survey missions with real-time analysis
- Communication and system link via E-Port V2
- Payload SDK application deployment for expansion
- Multi-sensor coordination and data fusion
- Enterprise workflow customization
- Field deployment in varied climates
Designed for Enterprise Integration
Manifold 3 is positioned as an open computing platform for enterprise development. With PSDK V3 support, developers can access flight control, payload data, video streams, and sensor inputs directly. Applications can be installed and updated locally through DJI Pilot 2 without command-line workflows, lowering deployment complexity. Support for onboard 4G networking further enables low-latency data access. These capabilities allow Manifold 3 to serve as the foundation for scalable, automated drone solutions across industries.
Manifold 3 provides enterprise teams with powerful onboard computing to unlock advanced autonomous and AI-driven drone applications.
