Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Humanoid robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) are rapidly converging to shape a new generation of intelligent machines capable of perceiving, reasoning, learning and interacting with humans in natural and meaningful ways. Advances in AI, machine learning, computer vision, sensor fusion, control systems and human–robot interaction are enabling humanoid robots to move beyond laboratory prototypes toward real-world applications in healthcare, education, industry, rehabilitation, social assistance, entertainment and domestic environments.
In this Special Issue, titled "Humanoid Robotics and Artificial Intelligence", we aim to explore the latest scientific and technological developments that are driving the evolution of humanoid robots. Particular attention will be given to AI-based methods that enhance autonomy, adaptability, perception, manipulation, locomotion, decision-making and interaction capabilities. We are interested in research that demonstrate how intelligent algorithms and robotic platforms can be integrated to create systems that are safer, more reliable and better suited to collaborative tasks with humans.
We invite contributions presenting theoretical advances, experimental studies, innovative methodologies and real-world applications in humanoid robotics and AI. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, AI-driven control and navigation, human–robot collaboration, robot learning, affective and social robotics, perception and cognition in humanoid systems, ethical and safety considerations, assistive humanoid robots and case studies in industrial, medical, educational or service contexts.
We look forward to receiving contributions that broaden understanding and stimulate further innovation in this dynamic field. Your research can help pave the way toward humanoid robotic systems with greater intelligence, autonomy and positive impacts on society.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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.
