Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The spread and development of artificial intelligence (AI) systems have fueled research into innovative vision sensors that can process or pre-process visual data at the edge. These devices must provide meaningful information to AI processing algorithms to alleviate their computational load or simplify their operation.
This Special Issue focuses on new vision sensors designed for or compatible with AI algorithms in various application scenarios, such as surveillance, autonomous driving, and inference. Spatial or temporal contrast detection and feature extraction at the focal plane are pre-processing steps of relevance for this Special Issue. Furthermore, on-chip image data pre-processing is also of interest, provided that the integrated sensor performs image pre-processing compatible with AI algorithms and systems. Spiking vision sensors are also within the scope of this Special Issue.

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.
