NXT Ultrasonic Sensor
NXT Temperature Sensor
The temperature sensor is a digital sensor powered by the NXT brick. Using the NXT brick and NXT software version 2.0, it can be calibrated to measure both Celsius and Fahrenheit (-20 °C to +120 °C/-4 °F to +248 °F).
These linear actuators are self contained units which include an electric motor. They will push up to 25N and move at 12mm/s unloaded.
For use with your NXT® Brick you will need a standard NXT® connection cable to connect it in place of one of the Mindstorm® Servos, and you will need to download the Firgelli L12-NXT Block

Expand your NXT experiences with the new NXT Compass Sensor and add accurate navigation to your MINDSTORMS® NXT projects. The NXT Compass Sensor is a digital compass that measures the earth’s magnetic field and outputs a value representing the current heading.
Add a spectrum of color to your models with the new and updated HiTechnic Color Sensor (Version 2). Detect an extended range of more than 15 target colors and program your NXT robot to react to each color. Build a color sorter to sort LEGO bricks or a line follower that will detect different color lines and surface colors.
Control your NXT robot with the HiTechnic IR Receiver Sensor and a LEGO Power Functions IR Remote Control. The IRReceiver decodes commands from a Power Functions Remote Control and your NXT program can use the commands to directly control NXT motors or to control other functions in your program.
The NXT Acceleration Sensor contains a three axis accelerometer that measures acceleration in three axes, x, y and z. Acceleration is measured in the range of –2g to +2g with scaling of approximately 200 counts per g.
Great for RoboCup Jr competitions to detect the direction of the infrared RoboCup soccer ball. The IRSeeker has an array of infrared detectors that give a 135 degree view and returns the direction and relative signal strength indicating the location of the soccer ball. Your NXT robot can easily find the soccer ball and keep it in sight. A winning combination when combined with the HiTechnic NXT Compass Sensor!
Accurately detect objects and small changes in distance to a target with the HiTechnic EOPD. The EOPD or Electro Optical Proximity Detector uses an internal light source to detect the presence of a target or determine changes in distance to a target.
By generating its own light source, the EOPD is able to filter out all external light signals so as a robot moves from bright areas to dimly lit areas or through shadows, the EOPD automatically compensates and only returns a signal based on its own light source.
Targets can be accurately detected over distances up to about 8 inches (20 cm), depending on the target size, shape and reflective qualities.

HiTechnic NXT EOPD
HiTechnic (NGY 1044) NXT Gyro Sensor
Measure the additional dimension of rotation with the NXT Gyro Sensor. This sensor that lets you accurately detect rotation for your NXT projects. The NXT Gyro Sensor returns the number of degrees per second of rotation as well as indicating the direction of rotation.
Measure +/- 360° per second and build robots that can balance, swing or perform other functions where measurement of rotation is essential.
The Infrared Link will enable you to build robots which can communicate with other devices such as Mindstorms RCX. The IRLink contains an infrared (IR) Transmitter and Receiver, connects to an NXT sensor port and communicates with the RCX through its IR port allowing Mindstorms builders to create designs that integrate the NXT and RCX and then establish a communications link between them.
The Vernier NXT sensor adaptor allows you to integrate vernier sensors with the NXT brick and NXT software.

Bluetooth™ Dongle
The Bluetooth dongle enables the NXT to communicate wireless to all devices with Bluetooth capabilities, e.g. computers, other NXT bricks, mobile phones and PDAs. Exclusive to the Mindstorms Education software, Bluetooth also enables the computer to communicate to several NXT bricks at the same time (classroom management). With Bluetooth, two or more NXT bricks can exchange programmes and sound files, and a NXT can be remote controlled by a mobile phone.
