Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The integration of intelligent sensors and advanced signal processing techniques in industry is revolutionizing traditional manufacturing and operational processes, ushering in a new era of efficiency, precision, and automation. Intelligent sensors, equipped with capabilities such as self-diagnostics, data processing, and communication, are pivotal in transforming raw data into actionable insights. These sensors are employed across a wide range of industrial applications, from monitoring machinery health and predicting failures to optimizing energy consumption and ensuring product quality. Complementing intelligent sensors is advanced signal processing technology. Through real-time data analysis, noise reduction, pattern recognition, and modern artificial intelligence techniques, these technologies further enhance the capabilities of intelligent sensors, enabling more accurate and reliable decision making. It is evident that intelligent sensors and signal processing technology hold significant importance in industries. Their integration brings about more efficient, precise, and automated production methods, driving industrial development and progress. By delving deeper into the exploration and application of intelligent sensors and signal processing technology, we can further enhance industrial competitiveness and achieve sustainable development.
This Special Issue aims to explore the cutting-edge advancements and applications of intelligent sensors and signal processing in various industrial contexts.
In this Special Issue, we look forward to receiving papers on a wide range of research topics, including the following:
- New materials, technologies, and designs for intelligent sensors.
- Application of intelligent sensors in NDT, SHM, and fault warning.
- Various NDT technologies in electric energy, petroleum, transportation, construction, chemical industry, and special equipment.
- Development and deployment of intelligent sensors in industrial environments.
- Signal processing technologies in industrial automation and intelligent manufacturing.
- Machine learning and AI techniques for predictive maintenance and anomaly detection.
- Sensor fusion and integration in industrial IoT (IIoT) systems.
- Case studies demonstrating the impact of intelligent sensors on operational efficiency and safety.
- Emerging trends and future directions in industrial sensor technology.
