Intelligent Sensing Materials and Devices

Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

Recent breakthroughs in sensing‑related materials, device architectures, embedded electronics, and artificial intelligence have given rise to modern intelligent sensing systems that can perceive, process, and understand complex physical, chemical, and biological phenomena. These developments are driving transformative applications in healthcare, environmental monitoring, industrial inspection, smart manufacturing, human–machine interaction, robotics, and the Internet of Things.

This Topic aims to provide a platform for researchers working on innovative sensing materials, sensor devices, sensing systems, signal processing methods, and intelligent sensing algorithms. We welcome submissions stemming from both fundamental investigations and practical application‑driven studies. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, newly developed sensing materials, flexible and wearable sensors, MEMS and microelectronic devices, optical and ultrasonic sensing, wireless sensing solutions, multimodal sensing systems, edge intelligence, machine learning for sensing, sensor fusion, low-power sensing hardware, and advanced signal processing techniques.

By connecting researchers from materials science, electronic engineering, computer science, biomedical engineering, and other cross‑cutting fields, this Topic hopes to promote interdisciplinary collaborative innovation and accelerate the development of next-generation intelligent sensing technologies.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.

MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:

1. Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
2. Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
3. Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
4. Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
5. Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
