LEGO Sensors From Dexter Industries
The lack of NXT Sensors in this region has led to the need to directly import and distribute these NXT Sensors from
Dexter Industries. Working closely with Dexter Industries,
we at Building Blocks will support users from the Asia Pacific region. Building Blocks plans to build a more integrated
community for NXT Mindstorms users in this region.
