About this project

Turns the Arduino UNO Q into a home arcade cabinet by running RetroArch, the open-source multi-system game emulator front-end, directly on the board's Linux side. The build uses a USB-C-to-HDMI multiport adapter to drive a monitor and USB speaker, so the whole cabinet runs off a single UNO Q board rather than a full PC or Raspberry Pi.
