Tye Brady’s interest in robotics began in the 1970s when Star Wars was released in theaters and Luke Skywalker’s beloved robotic sidekick, R2-D2, caught his youthful imagination.
Inspired by the fictional relationship between man and machine, Brady studied aerospace engineering at Boston University and earned a master’s degree in aeronautics and astronautics engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he also worked through the 1990s.
