DJI Zenmuse S1 is DJI’s first spotlight designed for multi-payload drone platforms, compatible with DJI Matrice 400, Matrice 350 RTK, and Matrice 300 RTK. Utilizing LEP (Laser Excited Phosphor) technology, the Zenmuse S1 delivers high brightness, long illumination distances, and multiple intelligent lighting modes — making it the ideal solution for public safety, emergency rescue, nighttime inspection, and a wide range of nocturnal operations.
Multiple Lighting Modes – Maximum Flexibility for Every Mission
Low Beam Mode
Provides a 15° Field of View (FOV) covering an illumination distance of up to 150 meters, matching the coverage of a camera at 5x zoom or above. Suitable for most short-distance search, surveillance, and inspection tasks.
High Beam Mode
Leveraging LEP (Laser Excited Phosphor) technology for superior light penetration, this mode delivers a 4° FOV at 300 meters, covering the illumination range of a camera at 15x zoom or above. Ideal for long-range emergency rescue and public safety operations.
Both On Mode
Simultaneously engages both low and high beams, delivering greater central illuminance than High Beam mode alone. Maintains the 15° Low Beam FOV while extending the observation distance to an impressive 500 meters — providing maximum illumination coverage for complete situational awareness.
Strobe Mode
High-frequency strobing capability effectively alerts and draws attention from target individuals, making the Zenmuse S1 particularly valuable for signaling in emergency rescue and public safety scenarios.
Brightness Meets Energy Efficiency
- 40 Lux Central Illuminance @100m – Ample lighting in dark environments to clearly distinguish subject details
- Only 24W Power Consumption in High Beam Mode – Reduces power load on the drone, preserving flight time
- LEP Technology – Combines high brightness with exceptional energy efficiency for extended nighttime operations
Intelligent Beam Alignment
When mounted alongside the Zenmuse H30 Series on Matrice 400, the Zenmuse S1 uses gimbal synchronization and advanced software algorithms to automatically calibrate its optical center in real time — intelligently aligning the spotlight with the camera’s field of view and effectively eliminating light deviation during dynamic flight operations.
Reliable, Safe, and Intuitive Operation
Comprehensive Payload Protection
- Multi-Layer Protection Mechanisms – Temperature, overcurrent, and power protection to enhance reliability and product lifespan
- Burn Protection – Plastic casing with contact surface temperature not exceeding 50°C (122°F), effectively preventing burn risks during handling
Synchronized Dual Spotlight Control
When two Zenmuse S1 units are mounted on Matrice 400, both spotlights can be controlled simultaneously — including on/off switching, brightness adjustment, and gimbal angle control. This is particularly effective for large-area illumination scenarios such as nighttime search and rescue operations.
Collaborative Ground and Air Operations
When deployed with Matrice 400 and the Zenmuse H30 Series, the Zenmuse S1 supports remote real-time video viewing and spotlight control via DJI FlightHub 2, enabling seamless air-ground integrated command and control.
Strong Environmental Adaptability
- IP54 Dust & Water Resistance Rating – Reliable operation in challenging field conditions
- -20° to 40°C Operating Temperature Range – Consistent performance across diverse environments
- Adaptable to Various Operating Environments – From urban public safety to remote-area emergency rescue
Flexible Mounting & Lightweight Build
- Universal Gimbal Connector Compatibility – Mounts on any gimbal connector of Matrice 400, Matrice 350 RTK, or Matrice 300 RTK
- Only 0.76 kg – Compact and portable design minimizes impact on drone payload capacity
- Fits Matrice 400 Carrying Case – Seamlessly integrated into the existing equipment transport solution
Open Developer Ecosystem
MSDK – Mobile SDK Integration
With Mobile SDK (MSDK), developers can quickly integrate Zenmuse S1 features into custom mobile applications, unlocking the full capabilities of the drone platform for specialized operational needs.
PSDK – Payload SDK Integration
When used with Matrice 400, Zenmuse S1 features can be rapidly integrated via Manifold 3 and Payload SDK (PSDK), expanding the drone’s application scope across a wider range of specialized industries and use cases.
