What edge AI is and why farms need it
Analysing video on the farm gives fast alerts, saves bandwidth and protects privacy.

Sending all 4K video to the cloud burns 4G bandwidth and is slow. An edge AI box analyses on site and sends only events and short clips.
What edge AI does well
Spotting intruders at night, smoke and fire, counting fruit, measuring growth by timelapse and blurring faces before public streaming.
Cameras per box
NG's edge box handles up to 8 concurrent 1080p streams – enough for a 3–5 ha farm.
