Who saw THIS coming? Qualcomm just acquired Arduino!
And they’re making a new SBC, the Uno Q!

Qualcomm to Acquire Arduino—Accelerating Developers’ Access to its Leading Edge Computing and AI
“Acquisition to combine Qualcomm’s leading-edge products and technologies with Arduino’s vast ecosystem and community to empower businesses, students, entrepreneurs, tech professionals, educators and enthusiasts to quickly and easily bring ideas to life.”
Qualcomm solders Arduino to its edge AI ambitions, debuts Raspberry Pi rival
“Qualcomm has acquired Arduino, maker of microcontrollers (and now single-board computers), in a move designed to boost its presence in edge computing, as evidenced by a new Arduino product based on one of its Dragonwing chips.”
Arduino rolled out its latest device, the UNO Q, which sports a CPU, GPU, and MCU (microcontroller unit), and is designed to run Debian Linux.
Arduino UNO Q bridges high-performance computing with real-time control. The Arduino UNO Q packs Qualcomm’s Dragonwing QRB2210 (matching the part number of the company’s RB1 platform) alongside a low-power STM32U5 MCU. It starts at $44 for 2 GB RAM and 16 GB of eMMC, and goes to $59 for 4 GB RAM and 32 GB eMMC.
Qualcomm and Arduino have both stated that they are committed to openness, and schematics and design files for the UNO Q will be released under a CC BY-SA 4.0 license. As well, the new Arduino App Lab, App CLI, Bricks and example software will be released under GPL3 and MPL licenses.
