Smart Sensing Systems for Health Monitoring

Dear Colleagues,

Life expectancy has steadily increased, and the demand for healthcare services is ever-growing. New technologies are appearing on the market, offering a wide range of applications, which are often based on new devices or a fusion of traditional technologies and personal devices. New pioneering ideas and methodologies are emerging to provide alternative, less invasive, non-contact, ubiquitous, smart monitoring of various functions of the human body and extending the range of their applications. This Special Issue aims to present smart solutions or new ideas for pervasive health monitoring to support prevention and follow-up of acute/chronic diseases, monitoring of sport activities, and pursuit of healthy lifestyle and active aging.

Possible topics include but are not limited to:

• Multimodal sensing systems
• Smart biosensors
• Wearable and portable sensing systems
• Smartphone-based sensing applications
• Sensors powered by artificial intelligence/machine learning
• Integrated system to monitor chronic patients
• Non-invasive, minimally invasive sensing
• Sensor systems to enhance rehabilitation
• Smart sensors for emergency medicine
• Sports and wellness monitoring systems
• IoT for medical application
• Unconventional use of other device to monitor health
• Monitoring of people behavior and/or daily activities
• Driver monitoring for automotive applications
• Sensor miniaturization
• Sensors to promote public health

This Special Issue aims to offer an updated overview of recent developments in sensor systems for health and wellness and insights into new trends.
