Biomimetics in Intelligent Sensor

Dear Colleagues,

With the rapid advancement of technology, the integration of biomimetics and intelligent sensors is opening up rich possibilities for innovative research and technological applications. This Special Issue aims to delve into the application of biomimetics in the field of intelligent sensors, providing an exchange platform for researchers in academia and industry to collaboratively drive progress in this domain.

Bio-sensing technology, as a crucial component of biomimetics, offers new perspectives for the design and enhancement of intelligent sensors via simulation and the application of sensing mechanisms found in biological systems. One point of emphasis for this Special Issue is biomimetic sensor design, involving the creation of various sensor structures and principles inspired by nature to enhance adaptability and sensitivity to environmental changes.

In the realm of smart materials application, this SI seeks inspiration from natural materials to achieve more efficient and flexible sensor performance. The introduction of bio-inspired algorithms provides a means of optimizing the design of intelligent sensors by simulating mechanisms such as evolution and genetics from biological systems, enabling adaptive performance optimization.

Biosignal processing stands out as a key technology in this field, involving the conversion of biological signals into information with use for sensor systems. Simultaneously, research on sensor networks and biosensing is a focal point, aiming to enable the collaborative intelligent sensor research across various domains and broader applications.

This Issue will not only emphasize fundamental theoretical research but also intends to promote the practical application of intelligent sensors. In fields such as agriculture, healthcare, and environmental monitoring, the introduction of intelligent sensors offers novel approaches to the monitoring, analysis, and investigation problems. By exploring the application of intelligent sensors in different domains, this Issue aims to provide valuable  insights for researchers in related fields.

This Special Issue invites researchers and thinkers to actively participate in this field by submitting original research papers, sharing the latest achievements and breakthroughs related to biomimetics in intelligent sensors. We hope to stimulate greater reflection and innovation in the intersection of biomimetics and intelligent sensor research, driving technological advancements and contributing to solving societal and environmental issues.
