Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolHideyuki Takei is a hands-on founder and CEO with 16 years building end-to-end AI, hardware, and IoT products that bridge real-world sensing and consumer experiences. He has repeatedly taken concepts to production—leading electronics, firmware, mechanical design, manufacturing and apps for products like PlugAir (200k units) and a sanitary-napkin dispenser deployed in ~4,000 Japanese locations. His work spans low-level PCB and radar design through Python AI systems, large-scale AWS backends, and consumer voice UX (one Alexa skill exceeded 200M interactions). Currently he focuses on personal AI hardware like Katally Sense, a wearable context sensor that lets mobile apps become the AI brain for life-navigation and companion use cases. Comfortable shipping both prototypes and scalable systems, he combines a robotics/HRI academic background with deep practical experience in China manufacturing and long-running cloud operations. An engineer at heart, he still prototypes circuit boards and firmware himself while architecting the product and business.
