Biography

Ir. Dr. Chris Verhoeven is an associate professor at the Department of Microelectronics at Delft University of Technology since 1999. His research focuses on systematic analog design, RF circuits, adaptive radio systems, sensor electronics, avionics, drones, and nano-satellites. He was part-time employed in the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering within the Space Systems Engineering lab and was responsible for the design and implementation of the electronics for the Delfi-C3 nano-satellite, which was successfully launched in 2008 and operated for eight years. Verhoeven has been involved in the development of future nano-satellite missions at TU Delft, including being one of the initiators of the national OLFAR project, which aims to create a moon-orbiting radio telescope based on swarm nano-satellites. In 2013, he became the Theme Leader for Swarm at the TU Delft Robotics Institute, focusing on research related to underwater robots, rovers, drones, and nano-satellites, while supporting controlled sounding rocket research in the Korolev Lab. He is also the Theme Leader for Space Robotics at the TU Delft Space Institute, concentrating on micro propulsion and space-born mechatronics.
