Welcome to my portfolio. Here you can follow my work and projects. PS: the images, videos, and models may take some time to load.
About Me
Hi, I'm Joshua Frost, a mechanical engineer driven by a lifelong curiosity for how things work and how they can be improved. I've wanted to be an engineer since I was a kid, taking apart anything I could find and trying to invent something better. That curiosity became focused through FIRST Robotics at Montgomery Blair High School, where I later served as Design Lead, and continued at Georgia Tech studying Mechanical Engineering.
Today, I focus on building high-performance systems at the intersection of design, manufacturing, and emerging technology. As part of Pratt & Whitney's Manufacturing Engineering Development Program, I work in aerospace environments where precision, reliability, and accountability are critical.
My experience spans product development, robotics, hybrid power systems, and performance-driven mechanical design — from leading robotics platforms to developing a compact hybrid powerplant and supporting advanced aerospace hardware. I'm motivated by solving complex problems, operating effectively under pressure, and continuously refining systems to perform better.
This portfolio isn't meant to duplicate my résumé. Instead, it highlights the projects — personal, academic, and professional — that reflect how I think, what I choose to build, and how my curiosity has evolved into capability.
My Projects
Compact Hybrid Powerplant
Led the design and full-system integration of a compact hybrid combustion–electric powerplant for micromobility applications. Packaged a 50cc Honda GX50 with a 4 kW BLDC system, optimized drivetrain ratios for dual-mode operation, and iterated through trade studies, prototyping, and testing under faculty guidance.

Robotics Competition Robot
Collaborated on a budget-constrained automated robot to place objects in an arena under 30s. Designed a linkage arm for a sub-1s task completion and used Arduino/C++ to control pneumatics, motors, and linear actuators.

Resume & Experience
Experience
Research Assistant (Project Eyeball)
Safe Robotics Lab
Making an asymmetric stereo camera setup utilizing cameras of different focal lengths to simulate human foveation, enabling accurate depth information acquisition. Implementing a vergence control depth estimation method for two 2-DOF gimbals moving relative to each other.
Hardware Engineer
Amazon Robotics
Designed and optimized sensor enclosures using SolidWorks, focusing on DFM/DFA. Developed vibration damping mounts to eliminate camera failures and designed a lightweight, high-strength steel repair platform, reducing repair times by 66%.
Robotics Project Engineer
