But guys, it doesn’t end there.

He also has a website, called Next Era Innovations, where he explains that he learned almost all of his programming and robotic knowledge through trial and error and online videos.

On top of that, he also has a startup.

It’s called Reflect Social and aims to simplify how smart home technology works, with the ultimate goal to help others:

“[The startup] combines popular social media platforms with Internet of Things (IoT) devices, providing a new dynamic social experience,”

“My entrepreneurial goal is to build technology that enables people to live better lives,” he said.

He also wants people to know that he still makes time for normal kid activities, such as playing basketball and building legos:

“A lot of people think I’ve given up my childhood or somehow lost it,” Wimmer said, “and I say to them that I’m having the time of my life.”
