Dear Colleagues,

3D Range-imaging and range-cameras are playing an important role in many research and application fields. Thanks to the Time-of-Flight measurement principle, range-cameras deliver simultaneously intensity images (2D) and ranges of the observed scene. They can feature different pixel architectures with advantages and disadvantages reflected in the delivered 3D images.

This special issue seeks research and review contributions from both the metrology and sensor communities covering the algorithms, methodologies, applications, developments and realizations of 3D time-of-flight range cameras. Topics include, but are not limited to:

- Geometric calibration
- Accuracy and performance evaluations
- Scene reconstruction and 3D modeling
- Integrated sensors for TOF Imaging
- SPAD-based 3D imaging
- 3D camera systems
- Indoor and robotics navigation
- Security, architectural, automotive and safety applications

Submission

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. Papers will be published continuously (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as 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 refereed through a peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Remote Sensing is an international peer-reviewed Open Access monthly 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 800 CHF (Swiss Francs).
