Arduino VENTUNO Q — The Dual-Brain AI Board That Pushes Boundaries

🤖 Arduino just dropped its newest board — the VENTUNO Q, built in partnership with Qualcomm and designed from the ground up for Generative AI and robotics.

What's Inside

• Dual-brain Architecture — NPU delivering up to 40 TOPS for heavy AI workloads, paired with an STM32H5 Microcontroller for low-latency real-time control
• 16 GB RAM + 64 GB Expandable Storage — Enough to run Local LLM, VLM, Speech Recognition, Gesture Recognition and Pose Estimation entirely on-board
• Arduino App Lab — Unified dev environment supporting Arduino Sketches, Python Scripts and ready-to-use AI Models
• Edge Impulse Studio Integration — Build your own custom AI models without the steep learning curve

What Can You Build?

• AI robots that respond to their environment
• Smart Home systems that understand voice and gestures
• Intelligent sensors running AI on the Edge — no cloud, no internet lag
• Autonomous vehicles and drones

Arduino Days 2026 Global Competition

Qualcomm and Arduino are co-sponsoring a 2026 Global Developer Competition, giving away 300 Arduino Uno Q boards to developers worldwide who can build market-ready AI-powered solutions.

For makers like us, this board makes AI accessible in real projects — no cloud services, no internet dependency, all processing happens right on the board.
