Sensors for Human Movement Recognition and Analysis: 2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the second edition of this Special Issue of Sensors and to invite you to submit a manuscript. The original Special Issue can be accessed at https://www.mdpi.com/journal/sensors/special_issues/Y82VW94F7P. Recently, there has been an increase in the number of consumer-level smart sensors and wearables designed for movement monitoring. However, there is often a lack of academic research and validation on the methods used by these devices. This Special Issue aims to compile original research and review articles on recent advances in sensors for human movement recognition and analysis. Potential applications include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Assistive technology;
• Rehabilitation;
• Sport Science;
• Smart PPE equipment.

Please note that, in accordance with MDPI Sensors’ scope, full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Additionally, manuscripts containing data from human participants must obtain ethics approval from the relevant authorizing bodies. Cross-disciplinary research collaborations between engineers and health science clinicians or researchers are of particular interest, as these collaborations can provide valuable feedback on the clinical validity of the measurements. 

Prof. Dr. Iain D. Murray
Guest Editor

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.
