Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Samrt textiles and flexible sensors have recently emerged as a new interest from both industry and academia. Textile materials are soft, malleable, and permeable, allowing for significant advances toward the development of wearable sensors made from fiber-based materials. The current textile sensors are made by invloving sensing materials into fibers, yarns or fabrics. The created sensors could detect different stumuli, such as temperature, mechanical deformation, humidity, and so on. The textile sensors have potential uses in diverse fields, such as healthcare, robotics, and human-machine interaction. To demonstrate the current technologies in this rapidly developing field, this special issue will present contributions from experts in the field.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- fiber/yarn/fabric sensors
- pressure/strain/temperature/or any types of sensors
- application of textile sensors,
- mechanicsm of textile sensors,
- flexible sensing networks

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. 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.
