Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Wearable devices often use physical, chemical or biosensors to monitor humans or animals in a non-invasive or minimally invasive way. Nowdays, wearable sensors are used in many fields in our lives including smartphones, smart watches and smart glasses. The application of wearable sensors covers health management, exercise monitoring, social interaction, casual games, audio-visual entertainment, positioning/navigation, mobile payment and many other fields.
Thus, this Special Issue is dedicated to collecting papers on the applications and challenges in wearable sensors, including, but not limited to, the following topics:
- healthcare monitoring;
- sports/physical monitoring;
- human activity assessment;
- motion tracking;
- ECG/HRV/GSR;
- physiological monitoring;
- implantable sensors and devices;
- flexible wearable sensors;
- mental stress monitoring;
- gait;
- emotion recognition;
- movement analysis;
- rehabilitation;
- injury prevention;
- wearable antennas/microwave;
- ambient-assisted living;
- fall detection
