Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
A “Bionic robot” simulates related biological mechanisms to achieve specific functions. Bionics is mainly embodied in robot structure design, perception, control, and decision-making methods. A biomimetic robot has inherent advantages in some performance aspects, which is important in the robot research field and useful in many application scenarios.
In recent years, with the development of physiology and brain science, many new achievements can be applied to robotics, This includes the imitation of organisms by robots in terms of structure and materials, the reference of biological mechanisms of perception systems such as vision and touch, and biological systems’ positioning. In addition, the above involve simulating the brain nervous system’s higher-level cognition and intelligence in learning, reasoning, memory, and emotion, which could lead to major changes in robots’ intelligence.
This Special Issue calls for the latest research results on bionic design and algorithms of robot motion, sensing, and positioning systems.

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. Biomimetics 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 2200 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.
