Find Your Buck Before You Lose Him
The DJI Matrice 4T Thermal Deer Recovery Kit is built for locating downed deer and other wildlife using high-resolution thermal imaging. The 640x512 thermal camera helps locate heat signatures in darkness and difficult terrain, while telephoto cameras and a laser rangefinder help confirm and mark the location before you move in.
Four flight batteries provide extended field time for longer searches, and the included AL1 Spotlight helps illuminate the recovery area once the animal is located.

Thermal Imaging for Deer Recovery
The Matrice 4T uses a 640x512 thermal camera with UHR super-resolution to detect heat signatures in low-light and nighttime conditions. Once thermal identifies a possible target, the optical cameras provide visual confirmation from a distance.
The integrated laser rangefinder can measure and mark the target location so you can navigate ground crews directly to the recovery area.
