Next generation ISOBUS is roughly 4,000 times faster than the original ISOBUS technology.
Marking a milestone in ag-tech history, High Speed ISOBUS (HSI) was demonstrated for the first time by the Agricultural Industry Electronics Foundation (AEF) at its North American 2022 Plugfest during the Commodity Classic trade show in New Orleans. With greater bandwidth and faster connection speed, roughly 4,000 times faster than the original technology, HSI will open new opportunities for innovation and serve the industry far into the future, as even more performance and automation is demanded...

It’s not only the new application and toolchain, but the team also aim at new quality and traceability approaches...

A subgroup of physical layer experts from the High Speed ISOBUS team (HSI) created AEF RIG 042 “High Speed Implement Bus – Physical layer – PHY and MDI”. This guideline defines the specifications of the standardized High Speed ISOBUS physical layer and media dependent interface internal to an ECU, switch, repeater, or other HSI device.

Maruyama
Maruyama has been manufacturing pumps in Japan for over 120 years. We also manufacture sprayers by applying pump technology. The circumstances surrounding agriculture have undergone major changes these past few years. We develop labor-saving and highly functional products for farms to increase efficiency. We also think about worker safety and consider comfortable work conditions when making our products. Our high performance sprayers and other equipment that epitomize our development policy and efforts are popular with the large scale farms and agricultural management unions that are the future of Japanese farming.
