I know that the terms of use for lugnet prohibits advertising, but I assume it permits anti-advertising :) The item identified in this post will not act as a flame sensor. It is a proximity sensor which works by emitting its own IR illumination (...) (23 years ago, 23-Dec-02, to lugnet.robotics)

Just a quick thought, I was thinking that using both the light and temperature sensors might be the way to go. Let the robot search or seek the brightness of the flame with the light sensor. Then if the value is true, measure the heat with the temp (...) (23 years ago, 22-Dec-02, to lugnet.robotics)
