Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Flexible pressure sensors have experienced a bloom of developments in both academia and industry due to their wide applications such as e-skin, personal health monitoring, human–machine interfaces, and smart homes. They are intended to fulfill the requirements of these emerging technologies and further contribute to a smart society with enhanced quality of life by rapidly improving their performance in flexibility, sensitivity, linearity, limit of detection, response time, stability, and durability. The great impact of flexible pressure sensors has also been fueled by developing other capabilities such as miniaturization, low power consumption, low manufacturing cost, biocompatibility, imperceptibility, multifunctionality, transparency, and integrability into large matrix arrays or with other electronic components.
This Special Issue is dedicated to presenting recent advances in flexible pressure sensing technology coming from materials, manufacturing techniques, underlying sensing mechanisms, circuit configuration, data processing methods (especially artificial intelligence algorithms), communication technology, etc.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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 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 2600 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.
