Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The development of wearable electronics and artificial sensing have drawn strong interest over the last decade years. Wearable electronics provide intelligent assistance for people on augmenting energy, memory, communication and sensing. Wearable sensors, a part of wearable electronics, expand people's perception ability in a lightweight, convenient and fashionable way. Many different types of sensors have been applied in wearable electronics to sense the internal physiological state of the human body, epidermal skin state and external environment information. However, existing commercial wearable sensors are bulky integrated with watch, ring, glass and necklace. Beside comfortable and unobtrusive to wear, wearable sensors are required to be robust, small, high performance and power efficiency. This special issue is dedicated to state-of-the-art research that is focused on wearable sensors applied in artificial perception, including optics, smell, touch, taste and auditory perception. Papers describing novel flexible sensing materials, sensing mechanisms, sensing signal processing, practical wearable sensor technology and applications are of interest.
Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:
- Flexible electronic materials;
- MEMS/NEMS for flexible, stretchable and wearable sensors;
- Soft electronic;
- Wearable sensors;
- Implantable electrodes;
- Wearable integrated systems.
- Smart textiles
- Flexible strain sensors
- Epidermal skin
- Sensing signal processing
- Wearable and flexible devices based on conductive yarn electrode

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.
