We started Nymble (now Posha) with just $1,000 we’d saved as engineering undergrads in India. Our first prototype was a 6-DOF robotic arm built to prove a simple but ambitious idea: autonomously pick up ingredients, dispense them into a pan, and stir.

On a shoestring budget, we approximated its complex 3D structure using laser-cut acrylic sheets to bring the concept to life.
