The Team

Neuroscientists and engineers building an open-source platform for embodied AI.

Christopher Harris

Dr. Christopher Harris

Founder & CEO

Neuroscientist (PhD, Sussex) and former PI at Backyard Brains, where he created the SpikerBot — an open-source neurorobot using the same disaggregated intelligence architecture that powers Plexus (Harris et al., 2020). NIH postdoc in systems neuroscience, studying how neural populations encode spatial information and drive goal-directed behavior.

Tetiana Medetska

Lead Hardware Engineer

Specializes in SMD PCB design. Developed the Plexus PCB through four revisions, solving WiFi-induced voltage sag, UART/GPIO conflicts, and motor driver noise.

Ongoing focus: Design for Manufacturing (DFM) to transition from prototyping to cost-optimized global sourcing.
