Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The integration of engineering and applied sciences into healthcare and bioengineering is driving major advances in the way we monitor, diagnose, and support human health. Emerging technologies such as smart sensors, wearable devices, biomedical imaging, robotics, and AI-driven data analytics are providing innovative solutions with strong practical impact, from precision diagnostics to rehabilitation and personalized medicine.
We are pleased to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue, titled “Advances in Digital Health and Bioengineering: From Smart Sensors to AI-Driven Solutions”. It aims to gather original research and reviews that highlight the latest scientific and technological progress, as well as real-world applications, in digital health and biomedical engineering.
Original research articles and reviews are welcome. Topics may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Smart sensors, wearables, and IoT solutions for healthcare;
- AI, machine learning, and big data in medical applications;
- Biomedical signal and image processing for diagnostics and monitoring;
- Human–machine interfaces in healthcare and VR/AR technologies’
- Medical and rehabilitation robotics for diagnostics, therapy, and assistive care.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
