Glimpse about Founder & Advisor
For, This edition I am gonna Introduce my Rocket modeling club Founder Dr. Ande Murali Varaprasad.
Dr. Varaprasad is a reputed DRDO scientist with 3 decades of experience in the field of Missile Technology at Research center Imarat/ RCI, Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam Missile Complex, Hyderabad, RCI is the brainchild of Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam and specialists on Avionics, Navigation systems, Control systems, Radar Systems for Agni, Prithvi, Dhanush, and Air Defense/AD Missiles. Dr. Varaprasad served as Head of Micro Electro Mechanical systems/ MEMS, His works include MEMS and Nanosensors for navigation, Gyros, Accelerometers, Pressure Sensors, and MEMS devices for telemetry and telecommand applications.
Dr. Varaprasasd earned his Ph.D. in 1979 from IIT BOMBAY in PIEZO ELECTRIC SONAR Technology followed by 3 years of Post Doctoral research experience at Microelectronics & Electrical Engineering Department of Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland.

Dr.Varaprasad has been awarded Japan Matsume International Foundation medal in 1987 and Materials research society of MRSI medal in 1990. Other Notable contributions of Dr. Varaprasad include Piezoelectric SONAR systems for Indian Navy while working at NMRL Bombay, during 1984-88 i.e, before moving over to RCI Hyderabad. Dr. Varaprasad is retired Government service in 2012. Since then, He is the director of CIGS(Center for ISRO GNSS studies) and professor of ECE department at St. Anns College of Engineering & Technology, JNT University, Kakinada, On 15 September 2016 an MOU has been inked with Space Applications Centre, Ahemdabad and Dr. Varaprasad is responsible for creation of "Centre for ISRO GNSS studies".
His current research includes space technology, GPS, Indian's Own GPS i.e, NaviC(Navigation with Indian Constellation) and location information for the Internet of Things(IOT). Dr. Varaprasad is a Senior Advisor to the growing community of Young, enthusiastic, talented and innovative, researchers who involved in making AI Robots, Rocketry community, NASA Rover competition, CANSAT Workshops, Cube-sats, designing Robots, asteroid mining, and space colonization.
It's an immense pleasure sir for helping us and driving us much more into the field of space and technology.
Thank you for your support, Stay tuned
