The Arduino UNO Q Bundle is a brand-new package for people who want to step beyond ordinary sketches and into Linux, Edge AI, and deterministic control without piecing together the learning material themselves. Elektor is pairing the 2 GB version of the board with a new 235-page companion book, while the official hardware overview makes clear that this is not a routine UNO refresh, but a hybrid platform combining a Qualcomm Dragonwing QRB2210 MPU with an STM32U585 MCU.

What Is in the Arduino UNO Q Bundle?

On the hardware side, the board brings a quad-core Arm Cortex-A53 processor at 2.0 GHz, 2 GB of LPDDR4 RAM, 16 GB of eMMC storage, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.1, USB-C, a Qwiic connector, an 8×13 blue LED matrix, and the familiar UNO form factor. On the software side, the Linux processor runs Debian, the real-time side uses Arduino Core on Zephyr OS, and the platform also advertises Docker and Docker Compose support.

Arduino’s UNO Q brings Linux-class processing and real-time control together in the familiar UNO form factor.


That combination makes the package more relevant to engineers and advanced makers than a normal board-and-book offer, because it spans embedded Linux, real-time control, and AI-oriented prototyping in one place.

The Arduino UNO Q Bundle in Practice

The book, by Dogan Ibrahim, is not just a printed pinout reference. It takes readers from board features and Arduino App Lab examples into Edge Impulse Studio and a full keyword-spotting workflow, which is exactly the sort of path newcomers to this hybrid architecture will need. The Arduino UNO Q Bundle therefore looks less like a casual beginner set and more like a structured on-ramp for developers who already know Arduino culture but want to learn how current edge systems are starting to blend application processors with microcontroller-level timing.

For readers trying to work out where Arduino’s higher-end hardware is heading and trying to make their systems intelligent, that is probably the real point of interest here.
