Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The recent advances in wearable devices offer invaluable opportunities for individuals to seamlessly interact with their surrounding environment. For example, wearable biochemical and biophysical sensors offer high-frequency interrogations of the subject’s health conditions. Wearable actuators and haptic devices provide real-time feedback to the users. These new possibilities have been enabled by the continuous innovation in the areas of flexible/soft materials, electrochemical sensors, and system integration methodologies. Despite numerous publications in the field, the application of wearable devices for robust and precise on-body operation remains non-trivial. Accordingly, this Special Issue invites researchers to submit articles that present novel materials/sensors design and miniaturization/integration approaches to address real-world translation challenges. We also welcome mini-review papers and perspectives that discuss challenges and future directions in this field. Researchers from a wide variety of background are encouraged to contribute their insights into this highly multidisciplinary area.
We look forward to receiving your submissions!

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. Electronics 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.
