If you have a LEGO Mindstorms NXT system you now have a new way for it to communicate. Using the Dexter Industries Wifi Sensor you can now connect the system to your WiFi network for a new range of project ideas. Dexter Industries has spent the entire week cooking up interesting ideas and documenting them on their site for all to enjoy.
“The sensor can be used to communicate via HTTP, TCP, UDP protocols. The sensor can connect via WPA, WPA2-PSK, and WEP networks, as well as adhoc networks between the NXT and a wifi enable device such as a cell phone or computer.
The sensor operates with standard 802.11 b/g/n access and can log onto any home network. The Dexter Industries Wifi Sensor connects to the NXT via the high speed communications Port 4 and is powered by an external 9V battery.”
