Jitendra R. Raol received his B.E. and M.E. degrees in electrical engineering from M.S. University (MSU) of Baroda, Vadodara, in 1971 and 1973, respectively, and a Ph.D. (in electrical & computer engineering) from McMaster University, Hamilton, Canada, in 1986. He joined the National Aeronautical Laboratory (NAL) in 1975. At CSIR-NAL, he was involved in the activities on human pilot modeling in fix- and motion-based research flight simulators. He re-joined NAL in 1986 and retired in July 2007 as Scientist-G (and Head of Flight Mechanics and Control division at CSIR-NAL). He was a Fellow of the IEE/IET (United Kingdom) and a senior member of the IEEE (United States). He is a life-fellow of the Aeronautical Society of India and a life member of the Systems Society of India. He has published nearly 160 research papers and written several books and numerous technical reports. He has guest-edited two special issues of Sadhana and two special issues of the Defense Science Journal (New Delhi, India). He has served as a member/chairman of numerous advisory-, technical project review-, and doctoral examination committees. Under his technical guidance, eleven doctoral and eight master research scholars have had received their degrees successfully.

V.P.S. Naidu obtained his M.Eng. in medical electronics from Anna University, Chennai, and PhD from University of Mysore, Mysore. Since 2001, he has been working as a scientist at CSIR-NAL in the area of multisensory data fusion and target tracking. He is a fellow of the Institution of Engineers (India), Chartered Engineer (India), fellow of the Institution of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering (IETE, India), CEng (IETE), fellow of Aeronautical Society of India (AeSI), and FCET. He is also a Professor in the Academy of Scientific & Innovative Research (AcSIR-India).
