Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Computer-based intelligence and AI are topics representing a gap in the research areas of sensors and materials. This Special Issue aims to bridge this gap, which could help in creating applications using AI technologies for sensing systems. This could help researchers to overcome barriers to applications utilizing AI advancements for smart sensing.
As a matter of first importance, instrumentation strategies without artificial intelligence techniques cannot fulfill the necessary criterion of real-time sensing. The hardware cannot react to sensors' critical demands. Second, the correspondence from sensors to various entities of the application is a major issue, since sensors have low data transmission and low vitality supplies. Third, as sensors have poor handling and correspondence capacities, it is difficult to ensure the security of the association or even endure errors in the information. Finally, when sensors transfer information to various things for storage and processing, how to guarantee the information security is a major issue.
This Special Issue emphasizes the effects of AI on different sensor types, including optical, mechanical, and acoustic sensors, for various applications. The intricacies in the design and development of extra drivers using AI for smart edge processing can be shared so that new doors can be opened for future smart sensing and processing.

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. Sensors is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
