Team

Sridhar Madala

Sridhar Madala

Founder, President and Principal Researcher
Sridhar holds a doctoral degree (1988) and a Masters degree (1985) in Electrical & Computer Engineering from Rice University, and a bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Madras (1982). He was the V.P. of Engineering from 1988 to 1990, and the President from 1990 to 1992, at Coherent Systems, a Houston based medical device start-up that developed one of the earliest computerized electrophysiology recording and analysis devices. He founded Indus Instruments in 1992.
Walter Caro

Walter Caro

Software Architect
Walter designs and implements custom embedded and client-side software. He coordinates with our other software engineers and works with our hardware electronics team to implement a combined hardware and software system that works as one. His areas of expertise include Ultra-Low Power Software Design, Digital Signal Processing, Real-Time Controls and Visualization of Complex Data. He holds a bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering from Rice University.
Juan Tovar

Juan Tovar

Manufacturing Manager
Juan oversees all manufacturing & procurement efforts. He has brought a wealth of manufacturing knowledge and experience with him from previous roles. At Space Systems/Loral he worked on communications satellites, and at Kestrel Solutions he worked on long haul fiber optics systems. His work at Picarro was with their Cavity Ringdown Spectroscopy technology. He assisted with the transition from device design to production at Diagnostic Systems Laboratory and headed up production of a 96 well microplate luminometer. While at Positron he headed up the procurement and manufacturing of PET scanners systems. He holds an associates degree in Electronics from DeVry University.

Partners

Baylor College of Medicine

Houston, Texas

For the past 20 years, Indus Instruments has collaborated closely with world class researchers at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas. Through various Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), our collaborations have resulted in many commercial products for preclinical research including Doppler ultrasonic monitoring and vital signs monitoring with body temperature control in rodent subjects.

Los Alamos National Laboratories

Los Alamos, New Mexico

We continue to collaborate with researchers from Los Alamos National Labs (LANL) to develop the electronics for instrumentation based on the principle of swept frequency acoustic interferometry (SFAI). This technique enables non-invasive ultrasonic interrogation of fluid filled containers (pipes, artillery shells, etc.) to extract a variety of material properties and can be used in a wide range of fields (chemical weapons treaty compliance verification, contraband detection, octane rating of gasoline, etc.)

Institute of Biomedical Engineering (IBME) Kiev, Ukraine

Working with researchers from the Institute of Biomedical Engineering in Kiev, Ukraine, we developed the electronics for ray tracing aberrometers that generate a map of the refractive errors for the human eye. Such instruments are useful for providing accurate diagnostic data needed for custom Lasik surgeries. The end result of our collaboration with IBME is the Visual Function Analyzer for Tracey Technologies Corporation, which we continue to manufacture the electronics under an OEM agreement.
