The Tek Sensor is a structure introduced in Genesis: Part 1 and also available on Genesis: Part 2. It can be used to detect survivors and creatures in a certain radius and activate pin-coded structures.

Obtaining

Moeder must be defeated on Gamma difficulty to obtain the Tekgram.

Utility

Taming Pen Component: Utilizing the property that the Tek Sensor can activate pin-coded Structures can make it a beneficial addition to making a taming pen, since it can automatically activate or deactivate Structures, removing the risk of closing a Gate yourself.
