Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Ambient Intelligence (AmI) brings intelligence to everyday environments, making them more sensitive and adaptive to human needs, preferences, and interests. Practical settings and scenarios to integrate AmI applications include homes, buildings, or even outdoor environments.
AmI is a multidisciplinary field which involves automation (sensors, control, and actuators), human–computer interaction, artificial intelligence, or ubiquitous computing. Intelligent interfaces spread and embedded in the environment are aware of the context and recognize the presence of persons and respond seamlessly to them, forecasting their needs and supporting them in their daily life.
This Special Issue will address the latest breakthroughs and recent research advances in “HCI for Ambient Intelligence”. Both original, state-of-the-art contributions and review papers are welcome, covering, though not limited to, the following areas:
- Novel interactive systems for AmI;
- Interaction design and novel user interfaces for AmI;
- Novel sensing technologies;
- Human activity recognition;
- User experiences in AmI;
- Social robots in AmI;
- Explanation interfaces for AmI.

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.
