Hyperspectral Sensing: Imaging and Applications

Dear Colleagues,

Hyperspectral imaging has emerged as a groundbreaking technology, capturing detailed spectral information across a wide range of wavelengths to enable precise material identification and analysis. Its ability to collect rich spectral data without physical contact makes it a powerful tool across various disciplines, including environmental monitoring, agriculture and food safety, chemical and material characterization, medical and biomedical applications, defense and security, forensic science, and pharmaceutical quality control.

For example, in medicine, hyperspectral imaging is transforming non-invasive diagnostics by enabling early disease detection, tissue analysis, and surgical guidance. In chemical and material sciences, it provides unparalleled insights into molecular composition and structural properties.

This Special Issue, entitle “Hyperspectral Sensing: Imaging and Applications”, highlights the latest advancements in hyperspectral imaging techniques, data processing algorithms, and their multidisciplinary applications. We invite researchers to contribute original studies, reviews, and case studies that explore innovative methodologies, address challenges in spectral data analysis, and demonstrate the transformative potential of this technology in fields ranging from healthcare to environmental sustainability and material science.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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. Sensors 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 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.
