Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Complex and dynamic scenarios are a huge challenge for environmental perception. An agent, such as an industrial robot or a driverless car, perceives the environment through its "brain" to store and process information. Interaction between an agent and its surrounding environment is influenced by several different forms of perception, such as auditory perception, depth perception, and visual perception. Auditory perception processes both foreground and background sounds and distinguishes the sounds. The ability to determine spatial relationships between objects is governed by depth perception. Visual perception gathers image information of surroundings and comprehensive the overall picture. These types of perceptions rely on each other, and all contribute to environment perception. Therefore, the complexity of environment perception is inherent.
In this special issue, we will focus on environment perception of intelligent robots to improve the perceptual ability for complex environments. The topics of interest of this special issue include (but are not limited to): the new sensing technology, statistical analysis, control theory, feature extraction, environment modeling, semantic understanding, multi-modal information fusion, and knowledge acquisition towards complex environment perception.

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
