Sensing Technologies in Medical Robot

Dear Colleagues,

Medical robotics, integrating the advantages of the technological strengths of robotics and information sciences, have become the promising technique in surgeries and rehabilitation applications.

In recent years, there has been a strong interest in the development and application of sensing technologies for medical robots, which offer new opportunities for non-invasive diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment in healthcare. With advances in hardware systems and sensing technology, medical robots have become a powerful tool for surgeons to detect and treat human diseases.

This Special Issue aims to discuss the latest advances, applications, and challenges in the field of sensing technologies for medical robots. Topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to:

• Surgical robot;
• Wearable robot;
• Rehabilitation robot;
• Magnetic drive Robot;
• Human–robot interaction
• Haptic sensing and feedback;
• Robot sensor and vision;
• Intelligent sensing;
• Emerging sensor technology;
• Sensor fusion.

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.
