UNO Q EchoGlow Workshop – Part 2

Join Qualcomm, Arduino, Edge Impulse, and Supplyframe DesignLab for a hands-on workshop exploring the new Arduino UNO Q and on-device AI.

Dive deep into building, optimizing, and deploying AI models on real hardware, as participants learn how to create their very own smart lighting system that changes colors and responds to their voices. Participants will collect sample data and build a model with Edge Impulse, assemble a custom-built LED board and enclosure to house an UNO Q, and deploy their edge AI model to the finished device.

This workshop took place at EDGE AI San Diego 2026.

Day 1: Generative Edge AI: Reasoning, Agentic & Physical Intelligence

Generative AI is rapidly evolving beyond prediction and prompts toward systems that can reason, act autonomously, and interact with the physical world. At the edge, this shift introduces new constraints and new opportunities, including low latency, energy efficiency, hardware diversity, privacy, and real-time decision-making.

The v5 Generative Edge AI Forum brings together industry and academic leaders to explore how reasoning, agentic, and physical AI can be designed, deployed, and scaled at the edge, and what it will take to move these systems from concept to production.

AGENDA DAY 1:

  • Fireside chat; Bill Curtis – Moor Insights with Pete Bernard

Session 1: Industry Applications & Consumer Solutions
