Arduino VENTUNO Q Edge AI Computer with Qualcomm + STM32 Dual-Brain Architecture, 40 Dense TOPS, Extensive Expansion for Industrial and Robotics Applications

The Arduino VENTUNO Q combines a high-performance Qualcomm Dragonwing IQ8 MPU with an STM32H5F5 real-time MCU on a single board. The MPU runs Ubuntu Linux for local LLM and VLM inference, computer vision, networking, and multimedia. The MCU runs Arduino Core on Zephyr OS, handling GPIO, PWM, ADC, CAN-FD, and motion control. The two processors communicate through Arduino Bridge (RPC).

The board features 16GB LPDDR5 RAM, 64GB eMMC storage, and a Hexagon NPU delivering up to 40 dense TOPS. It also provides 2.5Gbit Ethernet, tri-band Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, an M.2 NVMe Gen 4 slot, HDMI, USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode, three MIPI-CSI camera interfaces, and a range of expansion connectors.
