Nathan has an MBA from Wharton and a B.S. in Electrical Engineering at Yale University. He lives in Philadelphia and loves the great outdoors, second only to a good board gam
“Simplify, then add lightness”
Josh began his PhD research asking, “Can we use robotics to create a better prosthetic foot?” Which quickly became, “How do we actually improve the world to enhance quality of life for people with mobility impairments?” Josh realized that in order to answer this much broader question required imagining a new approach to design, one that didn’t rely on traditional trial-and-error prototyping. That led to the creation of Humotech and the Caplex system. Josh founded Humotech in 2015 as a spin-off from research based on his PhD thesis work in the Experimental Biomechatronics Laboratory (directed by Steve Collins) at Carnegie Mellon University.
