UBIETY® welcomes Ravi Yekula as our Firmware Engineer and FPGA Specialist.
February 23, 2024

Ravi has just completed an MSc in Analogue and Digital Integrated Circuit Design from Imperial College, London with Distinction. He was involved in the design and implementation of support vector machine (SVM) as a machine learning model for image classification on an FPGA, which will have relevance for our work in UBIETY. Whilst still in his undergraduate studies, Ravi was involved in a research area where he authored a few journal and conference papers on topics including “A highly reliable radiation tolerant 13T SRAM cell for deep space applications”, Microelectronics Reliability (133) 114527, 2022.

At UBIETY, Ravi will work to advance our current prototype concepts of multi-channel and multi-modality tomographic technologies. He will work very closely with the UBIETY team and aspires to grow towards a subject matter expert (SME) in FPGA applications. 


Ravi’s passion is to make an impactful contribution to the field he is associated with. He aspires to develop innovative solutions to address intricate challenges in our industries. His hobbies are going on long walks, cycling, listening to music, and solving puzzles. In his free time, Ravi likes to spend quality time with his family and friends.

ENCASE - the European project at advancing Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) research and technology is maturing for delivery

By Sarah.Payne • November 4, 2025
Dr Wes Maru, Managing Director & Technologist of UBIETY Technologies and ENCASE Project Lead has just returned after attending the annual ENCASE consortium meeting organised by the National Engineering Laboratory (NEL) TUV-SUD in Glasgow, Scotland. "Our contribution to the ENCASE project is maturing for delivery where we were tasked to develop innovate devices and technologies: Develop, design, build, and commission a novel primary standard (4-inch piston prover) for liquid and supercritical CO 2 , a novel and challenging application that required a series of innovations. Develop CFD models for the essential parts of the flow meter – including aspects of turbulent flow, compressibility, and thermal effects on the material through cubic Equation of State in the opensource CFD code OpenFOAM. Develop and manufacture novel and high-resolution ultrasonic flow meters to simultaneously measure volumetric flow rate and speed of sound. We are delighted to contribute both to the EU’s and UK’s ambitious goals of reducing greenhouse gas emissions under a project that brings together various stakeholders, including research institutions, operators, manufacturers, academia, and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), with the goal of enhancing competitiveness in the CCS industry. ENCASE’s cradle to grave approach for CCS makes the consortium a great forum to learn from and collaborate with leading experts."

UBIETY® welcomes Jurij Francuzov as Senior Electronics Hardware Engineer

By Sarah.Payne • May 12, 2025
Jurij has joined UBIETY recently as a Senior Electronics Hardware Engineer. He received his MSc in Electronics Engineering with special focus in IC design. However, Jurij claims that in all his conscious life, he has been developing electronics devices and equipment. “I was always involved in multiple projects that are not limited to a single industry and require broad knowledge and fast learning”, says Jurij. “I have probably worked in all fields of electronics for the past 17 years, covering analogue, digital, and RF circuit design—from initial concept through to mass production.” Over the course of his career, Jurij has developed a wide range of advanced devices, including RF Software Defined Radios, LTE base stations, Bone Conduction headsets, various medical and Lab automation instruments, vehicle diagnostic device, Transceiver IC, iOS app. He is passionate about solving complex engineering challenges with elegant, efficient, and practical solutions. “I enjoy staying hands-on and combining technical depth with broad system-level thinking” says Jurij, and that is the sort of technical expertise that UBIETY was after and found in Jurij so that he can develop it further. Fun facts: Being 12 years old, Jurij made an amplifier from an old vinyl player (without any understanding of audio amplifiers) and used it to listen to hard rock. Designed a Bone Conduction headset for the construction industry that got into Top-100 innovations of 2021 by the Times magazine. Jurij didn’t like literature classes in school, but published a book - a collection of hooligan poetry of classic poets!
