AI Cyberdeck Q

Arduino AI Cyberdeck Station – UNO Q + GIGA Display Shield + Transparent OLED This project is a tiny offline AI cyberdeck built entirely with Arduino hardware. The main idea was to build the kind of cyberdeck people usually make with a Raspberry Pi, but using the new Arduino UNO Q instead. The system is split into two parts. The Arduino UNO Q (2GB RAM) runs Linux, handles the keyboard input, and runs a small local LLM with llama.cpp. The Arduino GIGA R1 WiFi with the Arduino GIGA Display Shield acts as the visual frontend and renders the terminal-style user interface. On top of that, a Waveshare 1.51-inch Transparent OLED is used as a small status display for the active model. A tiny Rii Bluetooth keyboard is paired directly to the UNO Q. That means the UNO Q becomes the actual terminal host: it receives the prompt, runs the model locally, cleans up the output, and prepares the terminal screen for the frontend. The GIGA then polls the UNO Q over WiFi and redraws the screen on the displ
