Advances in MEMS Inertial Sensors

Dear Colleagues,

The journal Micromachines is pleased to announce the Special Issue "Advances in MEMS Inertial Sensors". Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) inertial sensors play an increasingly important role in modern technology, providing crucial sensing capabilities for applications such as unmanned vehicles, smartphones, wearable devices, and more. This Special Issue aims to gather the latest research findings, exploring the cutting-edge advancements and applications of MEMS inertial sensor technology. We sincerely invite researchers, engineers, and experts from academia and industry to submit original research papers, review articles, and technical reports to share their latest achievements, innovative approaches, and practical experiences. We look forward to this Special Issue making significant contributions to the development of MEMS inertial sensor technology and providing a platform for exchange among peers in the scientific and engineering communities. 

Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Design, fabrication, and integration of MEMS inertial sensors;
• Calibration and testing methods for high-precision MEMS inertial sensors;
• Applications of MEMS inertial sensors in navigation, inertial navigation systems, and inertial measurement units;
• Applications of MEMS inertial sensors in unmanned systems, intelligent transportation systems, and virtual reality;
• Energy-efficient design and low-power techniques for MEMS inertial sensors;
• Applications of MEMS inertial sensors in medical health monitoring and motion tracking;
• Novel materials, manufacturing processes, and packaging technologies for MEMS inertial sensors. 

Scholars and experts are encouraged to submit original research on the above topics or related areas to promote the development and application of MEMS inertial sensor 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.
