Further information

Durch Prof. Wagner konnte in Erfahrung gebracht werden, dass in Linz Geräte lagern, die wohl auf die Stuttgarter Sammlung zurück gehen. Prof. Dr. Hartmut Bremer vom Institut für Robotik an der Johannes Kepler Universität Linz sendete die Beschreibung dreier Geräte. Darüberhinaus befinden sich noch zwei weitere kleinere Wendezeiger im Besitz des Instituts. Den Schriftverkehr zwischen Prof. Wagner und Prof. Bremer ist unter der Signatur ALM-2010 einsehbar
