Honghao Deng (
zh:邓鸿浩) is a Chinese
computational designer and entrepreneur who resides in
San Francisco. He earned a
Master of Design Technology with Distinction at
Harvard University.[1] He is founder and
CEO of
Butlr and formerly was a researcher at City Science Group,
MIT Media Lab.[2][3] His latest project with Jiani Zeng Illusory Material: 3D Printed Optical Textiles[4][5] was selected "The best experimental design project of 2020" by
Fast Company[6] and won the
2020 Red Dot: Best of the Best, selected from 4170 entries from 52 countries.[7]
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.[8] They are thought to help business understand how clients navigate their stores.[9]
