Hardware Used During the Training

All hands‑on exercises
will be performed on development hardware provided by our official partner of
Renesas. Each participant will work on their own dedicated hardware set,
ensuring a fully practical and immersive experience.

The training platform
is based on the Renesas RZ/V2L microprocessor, featuring:

• Dual‑core ARM Cortex‑A55 (1.2 GHz)  for high‑performance application
  processing
• An integrated Neural Processing Unit (NPU)
  for efficient AI/ML workloads
• A robust architecture ideal for embedded
  Linux and edge AI development

Participants will have
the opportunity to purchase the complete hardware set at a special
discounted price, making it easy to continue experimenting and developing
after the workshop.

Special Price for EVK 50 Euro for training attendees only.
