Senior🎓
Top SchoolDon Kimber is a visionary technologist and entrepreneur with over 20 years of research and product experience at the intersection of immersive media, robotics, and human-centered systems. As Co-Founder and Chief Imagineer at WorldViews and former Principal Scientist at FX Palo Alto Laboratory, he has built prototypes in panoramic and spatial imaging, mirror worlds, telepresence robotics, and contextual 360º media that prioritize accessibility for isolated and special-needs populations. His work bridges deep technical expertise—32 patents at FXPAL and additional patents from PARC—with a guiding philosophy that technology should cultivate empathy, shared perspectives, and collective consciousness. Trained as an electrical engineering PhD from Stanford, he combines rigorous academic grounding with a lifelong commitment to using creative commons infrastructure to support a peaceful, more understanding world. An uncommon throughline in his career is designing systems not just to show more data, but to help people literally see the world from many viewpoints.
