Growing Together: The American Drone Industry and DJI

From day one, DJI has been proud of what our users have made possible. With our technology and your ideas, award-winning films have been produced, new job opportunities have been created, and lives have been saved. Simply put, DJI has been a key player in making civilian drone use as reliable and essential as it is today around the globe.

Most recently, the U.S. Senate held one such discussion, a hearing last week at a Commerce, Science and Transportation subcommittee entitled “Drone Security: Enhancing Innovation and Mitigating Supply Chain Risks.” We were not part of this dialogue, which unfortunately included inaccurate information and speculation about drone use and technology, potentially leading to restrictions on the access of DJI’s drones, purely based on where we are headquartered. 

Read the full article on ViewPoints, DJI's blog and find out in an open letter we have sent to the leaders of this Senate committee, how we hope to build upon the accomplishments we as an industry have all achieved together.

DJI Creates High-Security Solution for Government Drone Programs

DJI has introduced DJI Government Edition, a new comprehensive drone solution created specifically for use in high-security situations by government agencies around the world.

While DJI customers have always had full control over how the data they generate with drones is collected, stored and transmitted, Government Edition’s unique architecture ensures that drone data – including photos and videos captured during flight – never leave the drone and therefore can never be shared with unauthorized parties including DJI. This architecture ensures Government Edition meets the stringent requirements of the government sector for data management, risk mitigation, and enterprise-level data sharing control.

To learn more about DJI Government Edition, take a look at the video and read the full press release here.
