Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to present cutting-edge developments in the areas of robotics, intelligent automation, mechatronics, robotics in logistics, and other associated disciplines. Robotics research imposes new challenges in the advancement of robot hardware as well as regarding software solutions and systematic designs, including novel robot design, machine-vision algorithms and applications, cloud-based control systems and computation, artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning, and the processing of voluminous datasets from distributed robots, self-driving vehicles, smart sensor networks, and other sources. Therefore, this Special Issue is intended for the presentation of new ideas and experimental results in the field of recent robotics and artificial intelligence research progress and includes but is not limited to the listed fields.
- forklift robots and AMR in logistics applications
- rehabilitation robots and smart medical devices
- agricultural, space, and underwater robots
- cobots and multipurpose robots
- motion and path planning
- visual-SLAM
- deep learning in robotics and automation
- semantic science and understanding in robotics
- autonomous driving and network
- image processing and vision systems
- cloud-based robot systems
- smart sensors and networks
- grasping
- smart manufacturing, digital engineering, and industry 4.0

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
