Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Optical sensing is starting to compete with the traditional lab spectroscopic methods in the chemical analysis of industrial, environmental, medical, and other complex samples. There is a growing demand for inexpensive compact analysers for the field, in-line, and express analysis of various objects. Such devices are carefully optimized for a particular application by including a few optical channels sensitive to different (and possibly interfering) component signals in a mixture, hence the name of this class of analysers—optical multisensor systems. The sensory channels may belong to different spectral regions and even be based on different physical principles, but their data are analysed jointly using the methods of chemometrics. This Special Issue is intended to be a collection of scientific works aimed at the development and testing of novel optical analysers using the concept of multisensory measurement.
This topic is conceptually focused on the development of modern optical sensing devices, as an alternative to the traditional lab spectroscopy, and therefore ideally fits within the scope of

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.
