 | Peter Blume, President / Engineering Director
At the beginning of his career, Peter Blume sold and supported proprietary data acquisition and control systems. He developed an enthusiasm for solving industrial problems and, in 1991, founded Bloomy Controls – a tribute to his grandfather's pronunciation of the family name.
Focusing on PC-based automation, Peter spent the next years designing automation and control systems for customers in the Northeast United States. His diverse experience includes automating the calibration of aerospace instrumentation; developing test program sets for circuit board functional testing; controlling chemical batch distillation processes; automating end-to-end production and test of communications components; automating the manufacture and test of fuel cells and power plants; and controlling chemical batch distillation processes.
Successful in building long-term relationships with satisfied customers, Peter has grown the company, opening offices in Massachusetts and New Jersey. Today he focuses on building excellence across the business and directing the engineering team, helping customers to strategically implement automation to increase productivity, improve quality, and reduce costs.
Peter is the author of The LabVIEW Style Book, the industry standard for LabVIEW development style. He has published technical articles in publications including Test & Measurement World, Evaluation Engineering, Electronic Design, and Desktop Engineering. He also is a frequent speaker at measurement and automation events.
Peter completed his B.S. in electrical engineering from the University of Connecticut (Storrs, CT). His custom M.S. curriculum at the University of Connecticut included control systems courses from mechanical, chemical, and electrical engineering programs as well as a thesis in fuzzy control. Peter holds a Class 9 Professional Engineer License from the State of Connecticut, and is a National Instruments Certified LabVIEW Developer.

"Thanks for teaching such a great LabVIEW Basics class. I really enjoyed it, and I really learned a lot. I am already starting to integrate LabVIEW into my laboratory procedures. Hopefully we can stay in contact in the future, and I can give you updates on my progress!"
