Robert W. Zimmerer

MS 1955, Advisor: Larry Spruch
At SCIENTECH I designed and manufactured one of the first Electronic analytical balances and a laser power meter with traceability to NBS. Upon retirement I "fled" from Boulder, CO to Port Angeles, WA where I became active in civic affairs and designed a classroom computer system of individual student wireless data entry to a teacher's PC which was pedagogically successful but not commercially attractive to IBM, APPLE, or Tandy, (before Microsoft) Since 1994 I am working on a General Relativity experiment with my also retired PhD advisor, a theoretician, at U. of Colorado.
