Rising food demand and labour shortages are pushing traditional farming to its limits. According to Aetina, smart farming powered by edge AI turns raw data into actionable insight, reduces uncertainty and risk, and raises productivity through data-driven decisions; applications range from hands-free tillage to real-time crop monitoring, livestock management and automated quality sorting.
Electronics in the field work through dust, humidity, vibration and temperature swings, and they are often hours away from the nearest technician. Björn Tech builds the chain: from the AI platform and cameras of a harvesting robot to the CAN network of field machinery, the multi-camera system of a sorting line, the outdoor enclosure and its fans, and the out-of-band management that keeps a device at a remote site running.
Recommended in this sector:
| Applications | Harvesting robots, field machinery, produce sorting and grading, greenhouse and field controllers, field data logging |
|---|---|
| Compute | Edge AI inference up to 275 TOPS with Jetson AGX Orin |
| Cameras | 4 × PoE cameras (IEEE 802.3af PSE) and IP67 GMSL2 cameras |
| Machine network | Isolated CAN Bus modules; the protocols of different vehicle models |
| Power input | Wide input from 9 to 36 VDC |
| Remote sites | Out-of-band (OOB) management for access even when the operating system does not answer |
Farming is labour-intensive and the workforce keeps shrinking. Harvesting robots need server-class AI inference in the field to plant, irrigate and spray with fewer errors.
Our answer AIB-MX11/12/21/22GMSL2 Camera Modules
Embedded units on field machinery talk to each other constantly: obstacle detection, alarms and evasive commands have to arrive without signal loss. Different vehicle models use different protocols.
On a sorting belt, produce has to be imaged from several angles while it moves; cracks, blemishes and damage have to be removed in real time, and produce graded by size and class.

Electronics in the field and in the greenhouse are exposed to dust, humidity, vibration and temperature swings. The enclosure has to protect them and still remove the heat inside.

Fields and fish farms are often remote and off-grid. The device has to work on site without relying on a cloud connection, and be brought back without a site visit when it locks up.
Our answer InnoAgent EZ2N-0XL1Industrial SD and microSD
In the field, the AI platform rides inside the robot. The AIB-MX22 from Aetina’s farm robot case delivers up to 275 TOPS of inference with Jetson AGX Orin, four PoE cameras and a wide 9–36 VDC input. The embedded units on field machinery communicate over isolated CAN modules: in Innodisk’s field machinery case, a USB to dual isolated CAN module supports the protocols of different vehicle models, with ARM and Linux compatibility.
On the sorting line, a fanless system from the same Jetson AGX Orin family images the belt from several angles with four PoE cameras; in Aetina’s potato sorting case, produce is separated by defect and size in real time. On site, a die-cast aluminium enclosure with protection up to IP65 and DC fans protect and cool the electronics, and out-of-band management power-cycles a device at a remote site even when the operating system does not answer. Greenhouse and field controllers read sensors over isolated RS-485 and log data continuously to iSLC microSD cards, while wide-temperature memory keeps them running in outdoor cabinets.
Each card shows the product's role in this system and the expectations it answers; the product's own page has the full specifications. 12 products across 4 layers are recommended: Aetina (3), Innodisk (6), POLYRACK (2), YCC Fan (1).
Robot and machine decide in the field: vision, AI inference and the machine network run on the same vehicle.
