# 11**~ ~"steltl~.**  DJI Vision Positioning is a positioning system that uses**u~rasonic** and image data to help the aircraft identify its current position. With the help of Vision Positioning, your Inspire 1 can hover in place more precisely and fly indoors or in other environments where there is no GPS signal available. The main components of DJI Vision Positioning are located on the bottom ofyour Inspire 1, including [1]two sonar sensors and[2]one monocularcamera.

Using Vision Positioning Vision Positioning is activated automatically when the Inspire 1 is powered on. No manual action is required. Vision Positioning is typically used in the indoor environment where no GPS is available. By using the sensors on the Vision Positioning system, Inspire 1 can perform precision hovering 

### even when no GPS is available.

Followthe steps below to use Vision Positioning: 1. Toggle the switch to "P" as shown the figure to the right: 2. Place the Inspire 1 on a flat surface. Notice that the Vision Positioning system

cannotwork properly on surfaces without pattern variations. 3. Power on the Inspire 1. The aircraft status indicatorwill flash twice in green light,

which indicates the Vision Positioning system is ready. Gently push the throttle up to liftoff, and the Inspire 1will hoverin place. 

# & The performance of your Inspire 1 's Vision Positioning System is subject to the surface you are flying over. The ultrasonic waves may not be able to accurately measure the distance over sound absorbing materials, and the camera may not function correctly in suboptimal environments. The aircraft will switch from "P" mode to "A" mode automatically if beth GPS and Vision Positioning System are not available. So operatethe aircraft cautiouslywhen in anyofthe following situations: • Rying over monochrome surfaces (e.g. pure black, purewhite, pure red, pure green). • Rying over a highly reflective surfaces. • Flying at high speeds (over8m/s at2 meters orover 4m/s at 1meter). • Rying overwaterortransparent surfaces. • Flying over moving surfaces or objects. • Flying in an areawhere the lighting changes frequently or drastically. • Rying overextremely dark (lux< 10) or bright (lux> 10,000) surfaces. • Flying over surfacesthat can absorb sound waves (e.g. thick carpet). • Flying over surfaceswithout clear patterns ortexture. • Rying over surfaces with identical repeating patterns ortextures (e.g. tiles with same design). • Flying over inclined surfaces thatwill deflectsound waves awayfrom the aircraft. • In the event of loss of remote controller's signal, the aircraft will hover for 8 seconds and then

auto-land if it is in "P" mode. :\): • Keep the sensors clean at all times. Dirt or other debris may adversely affect the effectiveness ofthe sensors. • The effective hovering altitudes ofthe aircraft isfrom 0to 2.5 meters. • Vision Positioning system may notfunction properly when the aircraft is flying overwater. • Vision Positioning system may not be able to recognize pattern on the ground in low light

conditions (less than 1001ux). • Do nat use other ultrasonic devices with frequency of40 KHz when Vision Positioning system is

in operation. • Vision Positioning system may not be able to stabilize the aircraft when flying close to the

ground (below 0.5 meters) in fast speed.

# · 1. Do not use the aircraft in severe weather conditions. These include wind speed exceeding 10rn/s ,

snow, rain and smog. 2. Only fly in open areas. Tall buildings and steel structures may affect the accuracy of the on-board

compass and GPS signal. 3. Avoid frorn obstacles, crowds, high voltage power lines, trees or bodies ofwater. 4. Minimize electromagnetic interference by not flying in area with high levels of electromagnetism, including mobile phone base stations or radio transmission towers. 5. Aircraft and battery performance is subject to environment factor such as air density and temperature. Be very careful when flying 14700 feet (4500 meters) or rnore above sea level as battery and aircraft performance may be reduced. 6. The Inspire 1cannot operate within the polar areas in "P" mode.

Airports include major airports and flying fields where manned aircraft operate at low altitudes. Restricted Areas include borders betWeen countries or sensitive sites. The details ofthe No-FlyZones are explained below: Airport: (1) Airport No-Fly Zones are comprised of Takeoff Restricted Zones and Restricted-Altitude Zones. Each zone features circles ofvarious size. (2) R1 depends on the size and shape of the airport, and is an area around the airport that is a Takeoff Restricted Zone, inside ofwhich take-off and flight is prevented. (3) From R1 to R1 + 1mile around the airport, the flight altitude is limited on a 15 degree incline, starting at 65 feet (20 meters) from the edge of airport and radiating outward. The flight altitude is limited to 1640 feet (500 meters) at R1+1mile. (4) When the aircraft is within 320 feet (100 meters) of the No-Ry Zones, awarning message will appear in the DJI GO app.
