538 Exoskeleton Expert on the Future of Robotics (Josh Caputo, HumoTech)

Josh Caputo founded HumoTech in 2015 as a spin-off from his CMU research robotics department. His passion is focused on developing and commercializing cutting-edge robotics technology that addresses current societal needs like prostheses and exoskeletons.    Josh and his team have built a platform to enable the world’s top researchers to more rapidly iterate on their products and designs. This will eventually allow robotics to assist people in achieving higher levels of mobility and a greater quality of life across medicine, engineering, and business. In this episode, Aaron and Josh discuss Humotech’s goals, how they’ve bootstrapped a hardware company, and why exoskeletons will change the way we live.   Josh Caputo’s Challenge; Go on a hike, turn off the cellphone and ask yourself what you are doing with your life.   Connect with Josh Caputo Linkedin Twitter Facebook Instagram Website   If you liked this interview, check out our episode The Construction Robot Revolution with Jeremy Searock where we discuss how Advanced Construction Robotics applies robotics technology in the rebar industry.    Underwritten by Piper Creative Piper Creative makes creating podcasts, vlogs, and videos easy.    How?
