Overview
- The platform combines a Dragonwing IQ8 SoC with a dedicated STM32H5 MCU to separate high‑level Linux tasks from real‑time I/O, with ROS 2 support for robotics.
- A Hexagon Tensor NPU provides up to 40 TOPS alongside an 8‑core CPU, enabling local LLMs, vision models, and speech pipelines without cloud dependence.
- Hardware options include up to 16GB LPDDR5, 64GB eMMC plus an M.2 NVMe Gen4 slot, Wi‑Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, 2.5Gb Ethernet, USB camera support, and multi‑camera MIPI CSI.
- Arduino App Lab comes preloaded with offline models for LLMs, VLMs, ASR, gesture recognition, pose estimation, and object tracking.
- Availability is slated for Q2 2026 through the Arduino Store and major distributors such as DigiKey, Mouser, Farnell, and RS, with pricing expected below $300.
