Introduction:
Autel Max 4N is a type of drones that can perform exceptionally during night-time operations and limited lighting conditions. Using an array of advanced technologies, the system delivers a capability never before available for public safety and law enforcement professionals, as well as industrial inspection operators and emergency response teams. OverviewIn this overview, we take an in-depth look into the features, technology and use-cases of Autel Max 4N — one of the best night vision drones out there.
Cutting-Edge Autonomous Flight technology
Autel Autonomy has developed cutting edge autonomous flight technology to bring maximum safety and ease of use for the EVO Max series, just like in the words most advanced drones Ever. The drone, in turn can achieve that thanks to the real-time environmental data feed. The other two intelligent functions on the drone include global path planning, 3D scene reconstruction and autonomous obstacle avoidance in any rough or rugged mountainous environment, densely populated towns area or sparsely populated forest areas with very low user input. On top of that, it features a pretty safe return-to-home (RTH) function — great for when flying in new and difficult areas.
The Autel Max 4N uses high-precision visual navigation in situations where GNSS signals are blocked— such as between buildings and through dense tree canopies to ensure the drone remains operational without interruption. It uses SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) technology to collect real-time visual and positional information, leading to satellite-free stable flight.
Night-capable (both low-light and infrared) with Multi-Sensor Fusion
This night vision is at the core of what makes Autel Max 4N’s tick. Its starlight night vision camera can capture very clear and detailed images even in the evenings, or under near pitch-black circumstances. The camera can record images having such low illumination of 0.0001LUX, and ISO as high as 450000 that normally an eye would not be able to see with naked eyes which means the Autel Max 4N is useful for search and rescue missions or night services like video recording and photographic surveillance in nighttime security settings etc…
Apart from the night vision camera, Autel Max 4N is also equipped with a super-sensitive wide-angle camera that will take part in recording Real-Time Traffic Photography (RTP) content. The massive sensor has a resolution of as high as 50MP and it uses an impressive size -1/128-inch CMOSensorensi. It supports up to 30x digital zoom and features very sharp daylight images, as well low-light high definition shots suitable for long line inspection in industrial environments. Its wide field of view is designed to be useful in a variety of applications, as it can capture large areas with the drone’s ability to shoot very high resolutions in 1 shot.
However, the true magic of the Autel Max 4N is in its multi-sensor fusion which combines a thermal camera with laser rangefinder and additional imaging technology. The thermal camera has the ability to deliver infrared imagery in high resolution, with a focal length of 9.1 mm that allows operators to see heat sources from far away This, of course is extremely useful in firefighting where thermal variation can be a crux to effective response, as well industrial inspection and wherever temperature variance becomes important. This gives us a laser rangefinder to measure distances lengths up 1200 meters of distance which can be an extra edge in some operational applications with tht range.
720° Omnidirectional Obstacle Avoidance
The Autel Max 4N is especially cool among these drones as it has a new feature that sets them apart, the one of which they do not possess: real-time HD video transmission and 720° omnidirectional obstacle avoidance! The drone uses a multi-sensor fusion perception system that consists of double fisheye vision and millimeter-wave radar to support this capability. All these make the drone able to sense obstacles in all directions and therefore offer complete protection during flight. In the heart of a city with crowded buildings — or flying through dense forests, the autel drone will automatically detect and avoid hurdles so you can feel free to do your mission without crashing.
And not just during the day, as it works well for night and poor weather via fog or rain, according to Valach. First responders, industrial inspectors—anyone who needs to process important information from the drone—are a group of users that can benefit greatly from this feature in combination with Autech's obstacle avoidance system.
The Autel Max 4N drones are here to revolutionize the industry of night vision is due to its excellent performance in low-light and at night operational environment. For public safety, industrial inspections, search and rescue or environmental monitoring missions – the Autel Max 4N delivers unprecedented clarity, precision and dependability under difficult circumstances. This drone is a best in class for flight on the darkest of nights, with its groundbreaking technology which tactical grade sensor integration.

Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) | 60G: ≤20dBm (CE/UKCA/FCC) 24G: ≤20mW (SRRC) |
Sensing Range | 60G millimeter-wave radar: Upward: 0.3 - 20 m Downward: 0.15 - 80 m Forward & Backward: 0.3 - 50 m 24G millimeter-wave radar: Downward: 0.8 - 12 m |
FOV | Horizontal (6dB): ±60°/±22° (60 GHz/24 GHz) Vertical (6dB): ±30°/±20° (60 GHz/24 GHz) |
Operating Environment | 60 GHz millimeter-wave radar sensing system: Supports all-weather obstacle avoidance for glass, water, wires, buildings, and trees in 4 directions. Its obstacle avoidance distance varies with the obstacle's ability to reflect electromagnetic waves and its surface size. 24 GHz millimeter-wave radar sensing system: Supports downward sensing, and its sensing range varies by the ground material. For example, the sensing range of cement ground is 12 meters, and the sensing range of grass with a thickness of more than 3 cm is less than 6 meters. |
Aircraft Version Limitations* | To comply with (national) regional regulations, certain aircraft versions use a 24 GHz millimeter-wave radar in the downward direction and use 60 GHz radars in the forward, backward, and upward directions. In the 24 GHz aircraft version, the 60GHz radars in the forward, backward, and upward directions are disabled in the flight software at the factory, and only the 24GHz radar in the downward direction is enabled to assist in landing. The 24 GHz aircraft version only supports visual obstacle avoidance under good lighting conditions and does not support millimeter-wave radar obstacle avoidance at night. |

FOV | Forward/Backward Sensor: 60°(H), 80°(V) Upward/Downward Sensor: 180°(sideward), 120°(forward & backward) |
Operating Environment | Forward, backward, sideward, and upward: The surface has rich texture, under a sufficient lighting environment (>15 lux, normal indoor fluorescent lighting environment) Downward: The surface is a diffuse material with a reflectivity >20% (walls, trees, humans, etc.), under sufficient lighting environment (>15 lux, normal indoor fluorescent lighting environment) |
Sensing Range | Forward & Backward: 0.3 - 50 m Sidewards: 0.5 - 26 m Upward: 0.2 - 26 m Downward: 0.15 - 80 m (60GHz millimeter-wave radar) |
FOV | Forward & Backward: 120°(H), 80°(V) Upward: 180° (sidewards), 120° (forward & backward) Downward: 180° (sidewards), 120° (forward & backward) |
Operating Environment | Forward, backward, upward, and downward: Supports all-weather obstacle avoidance for various conditions, including water, forests, buildings and high voltage lines. At least one of the two conditions should be met: sufficient lighting or the obstacle has a strong reflection ability to electromagnetic waves. Sidewards: The surface has rich textures, under a sufficient lighting environment (>15 lux, normal indoor fluorescent lighting environment). |
