Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

At 10 years since the start of Biomimetics journal, this Special Issue aims to collate some specific topics proposed by authors in the field of Bioinspired Sensing, Information Processing, and Intelligent Control, from the perspective of how much these technologies have evolved over the last decade, and what their prospects are for the future (in the short and medium terms). It is a matter of fact that many promising, astonishing technologies, as they presented themselves at the beginning, have not lived up to this during their development, including being matched against some unexpected showstoppers throughout their evolution. In some cases, the difficulty was technological, as things were underestimated when the idea first started to be explored. In other cases, it was linked to a clash with some regulations that could not have been overcome due to strict configuration restraints. In this Special Issue, we aim to perform a deep analysis of the technologies herein addressed that we believe have a clear social and engineering breakthrough profile as they become fully exploited. We hope that the scientific and informative studies within this Special Issue will be of a high quality and hold an important place in the literature.
