Embedded Sensor Systems for Health

This special issue belongs to the section “Biomedical Sensors“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The demographic changes, with an increasing elderly population and with an increased incidence of multiple chronic diseases, accentuate the need for more advanced sensor systems to support and monitor health conditions. New tools are needed in order to maintain the current level of care also in the future. Intelligent sensor systems including smart sensors, reliable data acquisition, safe and secure data communication and predictive data analytics, enable health monitoring anytime, anywhere and provides intelligent decision support with regard to early detection, diagnosis, prognosis, and health promotion. This Special Issue solicits papers that address various aspects of intelligent sensor systems for health monitoring, that contribute to more reliable health assessment and promotion, in a timely manner.
