The big story in the drone industry over the last year has been the collapse of several high-profile consumer-facing efforts and a pivot to industrial-grade units. Now the market leader is getting in on the action. DJI announced the Matrice 200 today, an all-weather unit that can carry up to three cameras at once and packs a wealth of sensors that allow it to capture navigate with centimeter lever precision.

The M200 has a forward-facing camera built into its nose for the pilot, and has a dual gimbal underneath that can carry a powerful zoom lens and thermal imaging camera at the same time. If you’re in the market for something that can do bridge inspection, DJI also offers a top-mounted gimbal that can face directly above the drone.
