Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Sensors play an important role and are the brains and hearts of intelligent systems, such as unmanned aerial vehicles, autonomous guided vehicles, drones, and mobile robots. With the development of nanomaterials, advanced signal processing techniques, smart interfacing electronics, low-power embedded processors, long-range communication technologies, and multidisciplinary interactions, increasingly more smart sensors and devices are being proposed and fabricated under increasing demands from homes, the industry, the environment, and military fields. This Special Issue will report on the development of the above technologies and different applications including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Smart sensors;
  • Sensing technology;
  • Wireless sensors;
  • Smart devices;
  • IoT sensors and devices;
  • Intelligent processing;
  • Machine learning;
  • Artificial intelligence;
  • Smart homes;
  • Smart environments;
  • Healthcare;
  • Environmental monitoring;
  • Industrial applications.

You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Applied System Innovation.

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.
