Wearable Medical Sensors and Artificial Intelligence

This special issue belongs to the section “Wearables“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Wearable technologies offer a convenient means of monitoring many physiological features, presenting a multitude of medical solutions. Not only are these devices easy for the consumer to use, but they offer real-time data for physicians to analyze as well. From the Apple Watch’s EKG capabilities to new continuous glucose monitoring systems, wearable medical technologies have a wide range of potential applications in healthcare. For example, an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered wearable device that measures multiple vital signs has recently received FDA clearance for patients to use at home.

This Special Issue is concerned with the application of medical wearables to health monitoring, including but not limited to the following topics:

  • Intelligent medical data sensing and processing for distributed monitoring;
  • EEG/ECG sensors and brain interfacing;
  • VR/AR sensors, mixed reality, and data visualization;
  • Advances of medical sensor data fusion;
  • Internet of medical things;
  • Robot-assisted wearable sensors for healthcare;
  • Highly sensitive and specific sensor interface circuits and signal processing;
  • Artificial intelligence algorithms/circuits and for sensor reasoning, classification and decision.

Dr. Leonardo D'Acquisto
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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
