Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) calculates distances based on the emission of laser light and its return time measured by the sensor recording it as point cloud data in the form of spherical coordinates. The raster scanning method has been used to record all environments scanned by the laser. Nowadays, there is a wide range of applications, including autonomous vehicles, terrestrial earth observation and remote sensing, marine environment detection, 3D environment modelling, etc. However, LiDAR still has an abundance of important problems to be solved. This Special Issue focuses on various key LiDAR technologies, discussing it from various aspects. We encourage submissions that include, but are not limited to, advanced LiDAR devices, LiDAR systems, LiDAR applications, point cloud algorithms and other related research fields, with the ambition of ushering in a new era of LiDAR technology.

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. Micromachines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2600 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.
