Advanced Sensor Technology and Human-Computer Interaction

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue on “Advanced Sensor Technology and Human–Computer Interaction“ focuses on novel sensing and interfacing technologies that encourage new ways of interaction of humans with computers. Human–computer interaction (HCI) responds to the design, implementation, and evaluation of interactive technology.

Although HCI is still usually performed through not very sophisticated physical devices, research has gone in the direction of designing and using intelligent and adaptive sensors and actuators. Intelligent sensors for HCI incorporate at least some kind of intelligence in perception from users (e.g., speech, gesture, and gaze recognition, among others) and respond accordingly. On the other hand, adaptive HCI uses intelligence in the way it interacts with users by dealing with cognitive and affective levels of user activity (wearable sensors for affective computing, for instance). Moreover, this Special Issue also welcomes proposals based on the use of advanced intelligent sensors for HCI applications based on ambient intelligence and pervasive computing interaction, such as smart environments and/or virtual and augmented reality.

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.
