Focus & Scope

"Orange Technology" is an interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed journal devoted to advancing technologies that enhance human well-being, happiness, and compassionate care. Our scope encompasses the integration of cutting-edge innovations with humanistic principles, bridging gaps between technical feasibility and societal impact. We welcome submissions that explore how digital tools can foster emotional health, social equity, and resilient communities, while critically addressing ethical, cultural, and accessibility challenges.

Key focus areas include, but are not limited to:

- Health and Care Technologies: Developments in assistive devices, telemedicine, and preventive systems for vulnerable groups, such as AI-powered monitoring for elderly cognitive health or VR therapies for childhood anxiety.
- Affective and Positive Computing: Algorithms and interfaces that detect, respond to, and promote positive emotions, including sentiment-aware chatbots for loneliness alleviation or gamified apps for happiness indexing.
- Human-Robot and AI Interactions: Ethical designs for companion robots, empathetic AI agents, and hybrid systems that support disabled individuals or pet care, emphasizing inclusivity and bias mitigation.
- Warming and Sustainable Well-Being Tech: Bio-inspired innovations for community harmony, such as sensor networks for urban mental health mapping or blockchain-secured platforms for global care data sharing.
- Cross-Disciplinary Studies: Intersections with psychology, sociology, and design, including empirical evaluations of technology's role in happiness metrics or policy frameworks for equitable tech adoption.

We prioritize original research demonstrating measurable impacts, such as through validated indices like the WHO-5 Well-Being Scale or longitudinal studies on user outcomes. Article types include empirical papers, systematic reviews, theoretical models, case studies, and perspectives on emerging trends like quantum-enhanced emotional analytics. Submissions must incorporate a "Humanistic Impact" section, evaluating contributions to real-world well-being.

Exclusions: Purely technical papers without humanistic applications, commercial promotions, or unsubstantiated claims. We encourage diverse, international authorship to reflect global perspectives, aiming for high citation potential through rigorous double-blind reviews and open-access dissemination. By focusing on these areas, "Orange Technology" aspires to drive paradigm shifts, positioning itself as an indispensable resource for scholars and practitioners committed to a compassionate technological future.
