Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Event-based vision has recently emerged as a disruptive sensing paradigm, inspired by the neuromorphic principles of the human retina. Unlike conventional frame-based cameras, event-based sensors asynchronously capture intensity changes with microsecond precision and a wide dynamic range, making them well-suited for fast motion, low-light, and high dynamic range environments. In parallel, multimodal sensor fusion has become an essential strategy to overcome the limitations of single modalities, enabling robust and comprehensive perception by integrating complementary information from diverse sensors, such as RGB cameras, LiDAR, radar, infrared, and inertial units.
This Special Issue aims to provide a platform for the latest developments in event-based vision and multimodal sensor fusion, covering both theoretical foundations and practical applications. It will highlight cutting-edge research on algorithms, architectures, and systems that advance the state-of-the-art in intelligent sensing and perception.
We welcome contributions that span a broad range of topics, including, but not limited to, event-based imaging and reconstruction, fusion frameworks, learning paradigms for cross-modal perception, and real-world applications in autonomous driving, robotics, augmented reality, biomedical imaging, and remote sensing. Both original research articles and comprehensive reviews are encouraged.

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. Sensors 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 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.
