A couple of months ago I worked with Philo on creating a complete set of LDraw parts for the HiTechnic sensors and multiplexers. These are now available for download from the HiTechnic downloads page.

Look near the bottom of http://www.hitechnic.com/downloads.

This LDraw parts pack includes all currently available HiTechnic sensors as well as the two multiplexers. For the Sensor Multiplexer, even the battery pack has been modeled. A very cool feature of this parts pack is that all the units now have the text printed onto them.

Here is a sample image featuring the parts from this pack:



A really cool thing about the text is how it takes the shape of the surface it is projected onto. Especially the IR Seeker has quite a bit of curvature and the text is perfectly projected onto it. Philo used his tool SlicerPro to make this possible.

You can also see a couple of these sensors used in the building instructions that are available from the models page: http://www.hitechnic.com/models

Just to be clear, when I say “worked with Philo” that means I sent him the list of the sensors and the text that goes onto them and then he did all the work. Thank you, Philo!
