Honghao Deng (Chinese: 邓鸿浩) is a Chinese computational designer and entrepreneur who resides in San Francisco. He is co-founder and CEO of Butlr Technologies and formerly was a researcher at City Science Group, MIT Media Lab.[1][2]
Education
[edit | edit source]He earned a Master of Design Technology with Distinction at Harvard University.[3]
Career
[edit | edit source]Deng founded Butlr Technologies along with Jiani Zeng in 2019. [4] Prior to that he was a researcher at City Science Group, MIT Media Lab.[1][2] In 2020, his project with Jiani Zeng, Illusory Material: 3D Printed Optical Textiles[5][6] was selected "The best experimental design project of 2020" by Fast Company[7] and won the 2020 Red Dot: Best of the Best, selected from 4170 entries from 52 countries.[8]
During COVID-19 pandemic, Honghao led his team at Butlr to develop sensors to help combat the disease. These sensors are ceiling-mounted to detect body heat and track people's movements indoors.[9] They are thought to help business understand how clients navigate their stores.[10] As of February 2025, Butlr had sold more than 20,000 of it sensors.[11]
In 2022, he was named to the Forbes 30-under-30 list.[12][13]
In 2024, he was interviewed by NYSE.[14]
