Optical Sensors for Industrial Inspection and Quality Control

Dear Colleagues,

In-line optical metrology has become a key tool for real-time quality control and process monitoring across a wide range of industries, providing precise, non-contact measurements that are essential for modern manufacturing, inspection and diagnostics. Continuous advances in optical sensor technology have expanded the capabilities of these systems to meet the growing demands for greater accuracy, speed and reliability in a wide range of applications.

This Special Issue, entitled "Optical Sensors for Industrial Inspection and Quality Control", aims to bring together cutting-edge research and developments in the field, focusing on both coherent and non-coherent optical metrology techniques. We invite contributions that explore innovative sensor designs, algorithms and applications that demonstrate the versatility and power of optical metrology in industrial and scientific settings.

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. 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.
