Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As an important part of the construction of human–machine–matter harmonious environment, wearable computing has been applied to the enhancement of human sense, intelligence and physical strength, giving birth to a new computing model and scientific paradigm, and profoundly affecting human life and social reform.
The enhanced sense of user and environment status of wearable computing systems has changed from simple data collection and moved to the understanding of current status and prediction of future evolution and development. The intelligent enhancement for complex application environments has been transformed from task planning and node prompt to multi-sensor integrated intelligent service and active perception of user needs. Physical enhancement of human exercise and health has shifted from data monitoring to proactive warning and intervention. With the seamless connection of "AI+AR" technology and wearable technology, many frontier fields such as wearable computing and digital economy, intelligent medical treatment, intelligent fabric and clothing, metaverse and digital twinning are deeply intersected and integrated, and a lot of new technologies and applications to enhance human sense, intelligence and physical strength have been born.
This Special Issue will publish high-quality and original research papers in the following fields, but not limited to them:
- Wearable hardware and systems;
- Wearable computing enabled human health monitoring and analysis;
- Intelligent interactive technology;
- Wearable health interventions and treatment strategies;
- Wearable applications;
- Other cross-cutting studies.

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. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2400 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.
