Biography
Oscar Meyer. Originally from South Africa, Meyer came to the U.S. in 1992 and previously worked for Johnson & Johnson in Cincinnati, and serves as both Anthrotech’s owner and its president.
“Anthrotech has participated in some groundbreaking data collection efforts around anthropometry, so in some ways the Anthrotech thumbprint is on just about every conversation that has been held around human dimensions since those studies were done,” he said. “Those studies are still on the shelf for people to use as they’re doing analysis.”
Meyer noted that many of the things people use in their day-to-day lives — from clothes to handheld devices to furniture — have had their designs influenced by anthropometric study.
