Hi, my name is
Netai Chand
Samanta.
Building hardware that talks to the cloud. ECE undergraduate, IEEE-published author, and builder of microcontroller-driven systems that work in the real world.
Engineer of electrons, code, and curiosity.
A quick introduction to who I am and what I'm building toward.
I'm an Electronics & Communication Engineering undergraduate with a deep interest in embedded systems, the Internet of Things, and the quiet art of making microcontrollers do useful things. My work lives at the intersection of hardware and software — from cold-chain vaccine monitoring to nanoelectronics research published with IEEE.
I learn by building. Most of my evenings are spent wiring sensors to Arduinos, writing C/C++ firmware, and figuring out why an I2C bus refuses to talk back. I care about correctness, low-power design, and systems that work in the real world — not just on a breadboard.
The lab bench, organized.
Skills grouped by what I actually do — not a logo wall. Hover a chip to see how deep the rabbit hole goes.
Embedded & Hardware
Where the electrons meet the code.
Languages
The grammar of the machines I build.
Protocols & Connectivity
How devices whisper to each other.
Tools & Workflow
What keeps the lab bench running.
Things I've built & built toward.
A featured hackathon build, ongoing lab explorations, published research, and teaching work — each one a different facet of the same engineering impulse.
VacciTrack
IoT cold-chain monitoring for vaccine safety
An IoT system that continuously monitors temperature and humidity across vaccine storage and transport in rural areas — alerting handlers the moment conditions drift outside the safe window.
- End-to-end temperature + humidity logging with real-time alerts
- Designed for low-connectivity rural deployment
- Built and pitched as part of a hackathon team
Sensor Mesh Lab
Multi-node I2C/SPI sensor aggregation
An ongoing exploration of chaining multiple sensors over I2C and SPI buses on a single microcontroller — building a reusable firmware pattern for reading, batching, and transmitting sensor data.
Bismuth in Nanoelectronics
IEEE-published research on donor-doped semiconductors
Co-authored research investigating the nanorelativistic influence of Bismuth atoms when used as donor dopants in nanoelectronic technology.
Infosys Springboard Lab
Teaching & mentoring digital skills
Hands-on lab assistance delivering Infosys Springboard digital-skilling sessions — guiding students through programming and computing exercises at Sargachi Ramakrishna Mission High School.
More builds live on my GitHub — firmware sketches, Arduino experiments, and the occasional 3am debug.
The path so far.
Education, work, and the building blocks along the way — traced like a circuit from power to ground.
B.Tech, Electronics & Communication Engineering
Undergraduate program focused on embedded systems, signal processing, and modern communication engineering.
- Building foundations in analog & digital electronics, microprocessors, and control systems

Higher Secondary (Science, PCM) & Secondary
Science stream (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics) foundation that led into engineering.
- Class 12 (PCM): 77%
- Class 10: 85%
Published with IEEE.
Co-authored research on nanoelectronic semiconductor doping — the kind of work that makes the tiny things inside your devices behave themselves.
Nanorelativistic Influence of Bismuth (Bi) Atoms in Nanoelectronic Donor-Doped Technology
Investigates the nanorelativistic behavior of Bismuth (Bi) atoms when used as donor dopants in nanoelectronic semiconductor technology — exploring how heavy-atom effects influence device-scale electronic properties.
