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.

3rd Party Sensors
Thermal Infrared
The Dexter Industries Thermal Infrared Sensor reads surface temperatures of objects. It is a non-contact thermometer based on the MLX90614. Detecting the infrared radiation from an object, the sensor can read object temperatures between -70°C and +380°C. The sensor has a high accuracy of 0.5°C and a resolution of 0.02°C.
The Thermal Infrared Sensor reads both the ambient temperature (the temperature of the air around the sensor) and the surface temperature of the object that the sensor is pointed towards.
Highlights
- Measure temperatures between -70°C and 380°C
- High accuracy of 0.5°C and resolution of 0.02°C
