Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Ultrasound measurement is a rather user-friendly method due to its non-invasiveness, portability and real-time imaging capabilities. Ultrasound measurement has found broad appeal across disciplines and applications from sensors for guiding and checking for industrial and non-industrial nondestructive testing to biological, medical, and food industry applications. Ultrasound measurement in standard procedures requires manual operation of the probe based on the interpretation of the image. A robotic system for autonomous ultrasound measurement holds great promise to relieve the workload of operators, yield more standardized imaging results, and find application in harsh environments.

This Special Issue aims to highlight advances in ultrasound measurement in robotic sensing systems. Topics include but are not limited to the following:

  • Ultrasonic measurement, imaging and visualization.
  • Nondestructive testing.
  • Robot design, ultrasound robotic sensing and robot control.
  • Ultrasound measurement in harsh environments: high/low temperature, pressure, radiation, corrosiveness.

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.
