Official Arduino Portenta H7 Development Board
The Official Arduino Portenta H7 Development Board is a powerful and versatile board designed to execute high-level code alongside real-time operations.
Featuring a dual-core architecture, it allows two processors to run tasks in parallel — for instance, executing Arduino-compiled code on one core and MicroPython on the other, with seamless inter-core communication.
This makes the Portenta H7 ideal for complex applications requiring multitasking and modularity. It functions both as a traditional embedded microcontroller and as the main processor of an embedded computer when paired with the Portenta Carrier board, which transforms it into an eNUC form factor and provides access to all physical interfaces.
Designed for advanced edge computing, the Portenta H7 development board is capable of running TensorFlow Lite processes, enabling on-the-fly computer vision and AI tasks on one core while managing low-level operations like motor control or UI on the other — all in real time.
