He's more of a Aeronautic guy then a computer guy.
Besides his mechanical calculators where beast.
But he's more of a Faust character in the history of computers.
He sold himself willing to the nazi party so that he could work in his passion of computers.
And for that reason you won't see him on google as the highlight of the day.
No one cares for a sellout.

Also unless you're literally watching all the HIstory channels documentaries about computers no one mentions him.
I don't think he was a Nazi. He just did whatever necessary to follow his obsession and to survive.

He never joined nsdap. Z1 was a mechanical calculator, but the Z3 was the first real programmable computer ever created.
