Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue will cover a wide range of topics, from wearable sensors and smart textiles to implantable devices and advanced imaging techniques. The research within will highlight the role of these sensors in capturing and quantifying biomechanical parameters such as joint angles, muscle activity, gait patterns, and forces exerted during movement. These measurements seek to provide valuable insights into the mechanics of the human body and help clinicians to make informed decisions regarding diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation planning.

Furthermore, this Issue will present cutting-edge research on sensor-based technologies for rehabilitation interventions, showcasing how sensors are employed in the development of virtual reality systems, exoskeletons, and robotic prostheses to enhance motor learning, improve functional outcomes, and promote patient engagement. Additionally, this publication will explore the integration of sensor data with machine learning algorithms and artificial intelligence techniques, enabling personalized and adaptive rehabilitation approaches tailored to individual patient needs.

Overall, "Advanced Sensors in Biomechanics and Rehabilitation Applications" presents a comprehensive collection of research articles that showcase the transformative impact of sensor technologies in the fields of biomechanics and rehabilitation. We aim to provide valuable insights into the latest advancements, challenges, and future directions of sensor-based healthcare solutions, ultimately paving the way for improved diagnostics, optimized treatment strategies, and enhanced quality of life for patients.

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.
