Robert Wernli Sr. is an international expert in the technology that weaves throughout his first two novels, Second Sunrise and Sunrise Cartel; he has chaired eighteen international conferences in related technology in the United States, Canada, Scotland, Norway, Taiwan, China, and Japan.

Recently retired from a navy research center in San Diego, California, he now works as a consultant in underwater robotics and technology as president of First Centurion Enterprises.
