Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Flexible and wearable sensors have recently attracted increasing interest for the potentials of use from healthcare monitoring to human–machine interactions. The development of high-performance flexible sensors is the key to allowing the sensing system towards different application aspects. This Special Issue is dedicated to providing a platform in flexible and wearable physical sensors, including materials exploitation, structure design, and system build-up to application innovations. The list of topics includes but is not limited to:
- Flexible sensors;
- Pressure sensors;
- Stretchable devices;
- Wearable sensing technology;
- Human–machine interaction system;
- Functional sensing materials;
- New sensing mechanism and device designs;
- Fabrication methodologies.

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. Micromachines 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 2100 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.
