1694 Kaiser (1934 SB) is a main-belt asteroid discovered on September 29, 1934 by H. van Gent at Johannesburg (LS). It was named after the Dutch astronomer Frederik Kaiser.
Photometric observations of the asteroid during 2006 at the Palmer Divide Observatory in Colorado Springs, Colorado, were used to generate a light curve with a period of 13.23 ± 0.02 hours and a variation in brightness of 0.13 ± 0.02 magnitude.[1]
