Special Issue Information
Dear colleagues,
Optical 3D sensing that acquires surface geometry information without physically touching the measured objects plays an increasingly critical role in numerous fields such as industry, agriculture, medicine, entertainment, and so on. Advances in electronic sensors, computational power and deep learning have greatly promoted the development of optical 3D sensing techniques. This special issue focuses on optical 3D sensing techniques and their applications. Various 3D sensing systems based on technologies such as structured light, stereo vision, time-of-flight (TOF) and others have been developed by many researchers. Unique hardware and software are also designed to realize the high-speed, accurate, compact, convenient, and intelligent sensing systems. The topics of this special issue includes but not limited to: novel and advanced optical systems, information processing methods and interesting applications of optical 3D sensing.

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. Photonics 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 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.
