The VENTUNO Q is the latest single-board computer from Arduino. It’s built around a dual-processor design of a Microprocessor SoC and Real-Time Microcontroller and is designed for Robotics, Actuation and Artificial Intelligence workloads.

Built around a dual-brain architecture that pairs a Qualcomm Dragonwing™ IQ8 processor with a dedicated STM32H5 real-time microcontroller, VENTUNO Q doesn’t just interpret the world, it interacts with it. So you get sensing, decision, and action all on one board, on the edge, offline.

The AI brain with pre-loaded Linux delivers up to 40 dense TOPS of NPU acceleration for vision models, LLMs, and multi-modal AI inference. The action brain runs the Arduino Core on Zephyr RTOS, enabling sub-millisecond, deterministic control of motors, CAN-FD, PWM, and GPIO. The two communicate seamlessly via an RPC bridge: no multi-device complexity, no latency penalty, no compromise.

It’s the most powerful Arduino platform to date, offering 16 GB LPDDR5 RAM and 64 GB industrial-grade eMMC with expandable M.2 NVME Gen.4 port. On the MPU side, it runs standard Ubuntu (and Debian coming soon) Linux. Yet it maintains the openness, versatility, and ease of use that Arduino has become synonymous with. Docker and apt are already installed and available on the board, and you can program with VS Code, your own IDE, native Linux tools — whatever workflow your team already uses. You're never locked into it.

FAQs

What cameras are recommended for the MIPI-CSI interfaces?

The IMX577, IMX219 and IMX477 are identified as compatible camera options.

What HDMI standard and features are supported on the HDMI output?

HDMI 1.4, with output up to 1080p at 60 fps. HDMI-CEC is supported; VRR is not supported.

What version of DisplayPort is supported over USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode?

DisplayPort 1.4.

Can HDMI and USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode be used together for dual-monitor support?

Yes.

How can DisplayPort Alt Mode be converted to a second HDMI output?

Use a USB-C hub with HDMI output, such as the Arduino USB-C Hub 8-in-1.

Is DisplayPort MST supported?

Yes.

What MIPI-DSI standard is followed, and which screens are compatible?

The standard is VESA DSC v1.2. Arduino is working on support for Waveshare DSI Touch-A panels in multiple resolutions. See the Waveshare 5-inch DSI Touch-A example.

Are breakout boards available between the JMEDIA header and MIPI-DSI?

Yes. Use the Arduino UNO Media Carrier.

Can MIPI-DSI output be used alongside HDMI and DisplayPort?

Not all three together. HDMI and MIPI-DSI are multiplexed, so use either HDMI or MIPI-DSI, plus DisplayPort.

What resolutions and refresh rates are supported over HDMI, DisplayPort and MIPI-DSI?

HDMI: up to 1080p at 60 fps
DisplayPort over USB-C: up to 4K at 30 fps.
Native MIPI-DSI: expected to support up to 4K at 30 fps.

What resolutions are supported when all three display interfaces are in use, and are there bandwidth limitations?

All three cannot be used simultaneously because HDMI and MIPI-DSI share a multiplexed signal path. Use either HDMI or MIPI-DSI alongside DisplayPort. No further combined-output bandwidth limits were provided.

What video dimensions and frame rates are supported for decoding and encoding?

Decode: up to 4K135 aggregate, including 2 x 4K at 60 fps, 4 x 4K at 30 fps, 8 x 1080p at 60 fps, or 16 x 1080p at 30 fps.
Encode: up to 4K85 aggregate, including 1 x 4K at 60 fps, 2 x 4K at 30 fps, 4 x 1080p at 60 fps, or 8 x 1080p at 30 fps.

What expansions or add-ons are supported or planned for the high-speed connectors?

The Arduino UNO Media Carrier is supported. Further Arduino and third-party carrier boards may be developed.

What connections are broken out on the high-speed connectors, and how are they controlled?

The preliminary pinout was not available for sharing. Arduino indicated that it would be provided at launch.

What standards are supported over USB-C?

USB 3.1 Gen 2.

Can VENTUNO Q be powered through USB Power Delivery?

Yes.

Does VENTUNO Q support USB Dual Role Device (USB-DRD)?

Yes, through the USB-C port.

Can PCIe be accessed through the NVMe slot, and which standard is used?

Yes. The onboard M.2 NVMe slot exposes four-lane PCIe Gen 4.

What is the validated speed of the NVMe slot?

Validation was still in progress when this information was supplied.

How are Raspberry Pi HATs controlled, and which libraries are supported?

Porting is in progress using dedicated Device Tree overlays for specific HAT part numbers.

Do Raspberry Pi HAT libraries need to be adapted?

Not specified in the supplied answers.

Are any Raspberry Pi HATs unsupported?

Not specified in the supplied answers.

How are Arduino shields controlled, and which libraries are supported?

Arduino shields are controlled through the STM32H5 MCU. Corresponding Arduino libraries can be used through Arduino App Lab.

Which IDEs are supported?

Arduino IDE is supported. The intended primary experience is Arduino App Lab.

Does the board hardware have upstream Linux support?

Yes.

Does the board hardware support Android?

No.

Is source code available for driver and hardware support, and for which operating systems?

Yes. Ubuntu and Debian are supported on the Linux processor side; Zephyr OS is used on the microcontroller side.

What is the recommended development and debugging toolchain?

Arduino App Lab.

Can hardware programmers or debuggers be connected?

Yes. Arduino provides the Arduino Bughopper, which opens a Linux console.

Are there costs associated with the required development environments or software?

No.

What programming languages are expected?

Python for the Linux processor side and Arduino language/C++ for the STM32 microcontroller side.

Are external GPUs supported through OcuLink or USB-C?

External GPU support is not confirmed.

What audio codec is used?

MAX98091.

Are there recommended USB hubs or docks?

USB hubs should generally be compatible. Arduino also suggests the Arduino USB-C Hub 8-in-1.

Can CPU modes, speeds and governors be monitored?

Yes.

Can VENTUNO Q be placed into lower-power modes?

Not directly through Arduino at this time.

Can VENTUNO Q wake from LAN, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or USB?

Not at this time.

Does HDMI support HDMI-CEC?

Yes.

Do HDMI or DisplayPort support Variable Refresh Rate (VRR)?

No. Neither output supports VRR.

What GPU is used?

Qualcomm Adreno 623. See the Qualcomm graphics overview.

Is RAM shared between the processors?

Yes.

Are example projects available for robotics?

Yes. Dedicated VENTUNO Q robotics and ROS 2 guides are planned.

Are example projects available for motor control?
