I did stumble on this video on the accuracy of the R2 a bit behind the VST and atago. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7Sk7aUOVU4

Thanks Craig, those seem like the gold standard from what I've gathered as well.

Aloe's experimental technique and rigor have been questioned in the past. There have been incidents where data was removed post-facto.

The experiments were performed by Socratic coffee, so the experimental technique and rigor would be on them not Robert. RObert provided the data analysis it seems like which would make sense

Data was collected at Socratic Coffee, and we iterated through a few experiments to better understand the performance of the R2.

This line makes it sound like he was involved in more than just post-analysis. But he doesn't make it clear exactly what was done.

He could have possbily been more involved but without a breakdown it would be hard to know his involvment, it doesn't seem like he actually went to the socratic lab in australia, so the data must have been collected by them and Robert may have been involved what experiments were performed. Not really any way to get more information than that.
