Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid advancement of Intelligent Sensors and the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is fundamentally transforming the landscape of Smart Healthcare, shifting the paradigm from reactive treatment to proactive, 24/7 digital health monitoring. This Special Issue explores the synergy between low-cost, user-friendly IoMT devices and sophisticated AI-driven algorithms to revolutionize disease prevention, early diagnosis, and the management of chronic conditions. By leveraging edge–cloud optimization and high-accuracy machine learning models, we can now monitor complex multimodal physiological and behavioral signals to provide clinicians with real-time data for informed, personalized clinical outcomes. Together, these Intelligent Sensors and the IoMT have the potential to provide continuous assessment of physical, mental, and behavioral health, enhancing overall well-being in daily life.
We invite original research and reviews that address current challenges in Intelligent Sensors and the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) for Smart Healthcare, including biomedical signal processing, hardware miniaturization, flexible electronics, and the security/privacy of connected healthcare systems. We aim to provide a platform for scientists and engineers to present their latest theoretical and technological advancements in intelligence-enhanced health monitoring.

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. Future Internet is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 1800 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.
