Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, the world in general, and the industrial world in particular, has been living a revolution. The interconnected society is a reality, bringing new business opportunities and, in theory, a better life for the human race. Within the industrial manufacturing sector, the most desired asset is information capable of supporting run-time intelligence for the optimization of industrial activities. In order to create that information, data needs to be gathered—if possible, close to the source. It is at this point where sensor technology plays a crucial role.

This Special Issue invites submissions targeting the following topics:

• sensors fundamentals targeting intelligent manufacturing systems;
• sensors architectures and infrastructures for highly dynamic manufacturing systems;
• sensors applications for monitoring large manufacturing systems;
• sensors solutions for self-healing manufacturing assets;
• energy harvesting mechanisms for industrial wireless sensors;
• sensors solutions for high-speed robotics systems.

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.
