Description

The EVO Max series adopts Autel Autonomy’s autonomous flight technology, achieving global path planning, 3D scene reconstruction, autonomous obstacle avoidance, and return-to-home in complex environments. With the capability of precise navigation without GNSS, it offers high-precision visual navigation in scenarios where GNSS signals are blocked, weak, or heavily interfered with, ensuring stable and reliable flight with high accuracy and low latency. The industry’s first A-Mesh networking technology supports the free networking of multiple devices, achieving integrated air-ground network coverage. Featuring a “dual fisheye vision + millimeter-wave radar” multi- sensor fusion perception technology, it has 720° omnidirectional sensing and obstacle avoidance capabilities. The EVO Max series is equipped with the FusionLight camera 4T and FusionLight camera 4N, integrating a zoom camera, an ultra-starlight level night vision camera, an ultra-sensitive wide-angle camera, a thermal imaging camera, and a laser rangefinder. It efficiently empowers public safety, energy inspection, emergency management, and other fields, setting a new benchmark for industry applications of drones.

EVO MAX 4N –A Leader of Drone Intelligence

The EVO Max 4N brings powerful technologies and advanced autonomy to users. EVO Max 4N assesses complex environments to create real-time 3D flight paths for unparalleled obstacle avoidance.Advanced sensors make flight in GPS unavailable areas possible and the incredible new thermal payload unlocks new object identification and tracking scenarios.With a foldable, weather-resistant design, the EVO Max 4N is as portable as it is capable.

Autonomous Path Finding：Autel’s Autonomy Engine collects surrounding environmental data and plans 3D flight paths through complex environments such as mountains, forests, and buildings. Use cases include rapid 3D scene reconstruction, public safety overwatch, industrial inspection, and land surveying.

Navigation in GPS Denied Environment: Advanced sensors allow the EVO Max 4N to navigate within hardened structures, underground, or in environments without GPS.

Accurate Object Identification and Tracking : Based on Autel’s AI recognition technology, the EVO Max 4N can automatically identify and lock onto different types of targets such as heat sources, moving people, or vehicles and achieve high-altitude tracking and data collection for law enforcement.

No Blind Spots-Ultimate Obstacle Avoidance

EVO Max 4N is the only commercial drone that combines traditional binocular vision systems with millimeter wave radar technology. This allows the EVO Max 4N’s onboard Autel Autonomy Engine to perceive objects down to 0.5 inch, eliminating blind spots and enabling operation in low light or rainy conditions.

Anti Jam-Anti Interference

The EVO Max 4N uses advanced flight control modules and algorithms specially designed to counter RFI, EMI, and GPS spoofing. This enables the EVO Max 4N to fly confidently near power lines, critical structures, and in complex areas.

Weather Rating-IP43

A-Mesh 1.0 – The Drone Industry’s First Mesh Networking Technology

EVO Max 4N features the new A-Mesh system, enabling drone-to-drone autonomous communication, connection, and collaboration.

Strong Anti-Interference: The EVO Max 4N can communicate seamlessly with other drones in the vicinity, unlike a traditional chain structure. If a single drone fails or exits unexpectedly, the entire system will independently self-organize and continue to relay critical information.

Beyond-Line-of-Sight Applications: With A-Mesh, multiple aircrafts in the vicinity can act as relay points to greatly improve BVLOS operation effectiveness

Full-Fleet Control:Multiple drones can be controlled autonomously by 1 pilot or by a group of pilots simultaneously with or without LTE coverage.

Enhanced Range: Communication nodes can be placed statically on hills or poles to provide full coverage to an area, or a swarm of drones can provide mobile communication points to extend the coverage of the entire group.
