The Arduino UNO Q features a dual “brain” design, integrating a Linux Debian-based MPU for running high-level tasks like AI inference and multimedia management, alongside an MCU that ensures precise real-time control for critical applications such as motor control and sensor polling. These subsystems communicate seamlessly through Arduino’s Bridge RPC framework.
“We’re honored to be one of the first distributors to carry Arduino’s innovative UNO Q,” said Mike Slater, vice president of global business development for DigiKey. “This distribution partnership underscores our commitment to delivering the latest new product introductions (NPIs) to our customers and validates DigiKey’s global market leadership. We look forward to playing a key role in the successful launch of the UNO Q and ensuring its impact is felt throughout the industry.”
Preloaded with Arduino’s all-in-one App Lab development environment, the UNO Q unifies Arduino sketches, Python scripts, and containerized AI models into a single, easy-to-manage interface. This platform streamlines the creation and deployment of applications that combine real-time control with advanced computing, empowering developers, educators, and innovators to build sophisticated embedded, Linux, and edge AI projects.
“By partnering with Arduino on the launch and distribution of the UNO Q, we are empowering our broad, global customer base with the ‘Swiss Army Knife’ for all developers,” said David Sandys, senior director of technical enablement & engagement for DigiKey. “The powerful multi-tool will assist in development for educators, makers and startups all the way to enterprise-level customers.”
