Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent decades, advances in medicine and rehabilitation can be at least in part attributed to the development in technologies, from diagnostic tools to algorithms easing the decision-making process.
The majority of technologies used in medicine and rehabilitation are still expensive to purchase and operate and require highly trained experts to interpret the results. Accordingly, the majority of individuals can only sporadically benefit from the advent of medical and rehabilitation technologies.
Advances in smart materials, wearable devices, biosensors, and edge computing integrated sensory systems allow recording a substantially higher amount of data in laboratory clinical settings and real-life situations. Advances in machine learning algorithms integrated in the sensory system are crucial to make sense of the huge amount of data collected by sensory systems.
This Special Issue aims to represent the latest advances in sensory systems to ease medical and rehabilitation processes. We welcome contributions in all fields of sensory integrated medical and rehabilitation devices, including new sensory systems, signal processing algorithms, as well as real-life integrations. We particularly appreciate contributions in the field of edge-computing-integrated sensory systems. Those include but are not limited to:
- Biosensors;
- Machine/deep learning and artificial intelligence in sensing and imaging;
- Signal processing, data fusion, and deep learning in sensor systems;
- Advanced materials for sensing;
- Wearable sensors, devices, and electronics;
- Electrodes

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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
