Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDeepak Khatri is a founder and embedded systems engineer from Delhi with eight years of experience bridging biotechnology, electronics, and software to build devices that connect biology to the digital world. He designs and ships embedded Linux solutions and biopotential amplifiers—most recently a dual-channel Wi‑Fi EEG/ECG/EMG recorder with real‑time web-socket visualization—and contributes to prominent open-source projects like Biopython and BeagleBoard overlays. At Upside Down Labs and as a Product Development Engineer at BeagleBoard.org he focuses on hardware-software integration, device tree configuration, and peripheral control for cutting-edge boards. His work uniquely combines hands-on DNA manipulation knowledge with C++, Python, and embedded electronics, positioning him to prototype neural interfacing platforms and biohybrid systems. An offbeat ambition—training cultured neurons on electrode arrays to perform tasks—underscores his experimental, systems-level approach to engineering.
