A robotic toy modelled on one of the characters from the forthcoming Star Wars sequel aims to become one of most requested gifts this Christmas. Sphero's BB-8 droid features a head that stays "balanced" on top of a spinning ball, which can be controlled by a smartphone or tablet and reacts to voice commands.
The Sphero Bolt is used as a comprehensive STEM educational tool while making learning fun and exciting at home or at school.
The RVR is a departure from previous products in all ways but one - it's heavily focused on STEM learning and is programmable thanks to the Sphero EDU.
Sphero’s $150 phone-controlled robot continues to get new abilities - and it gets a bit scared by Kylo Ren.
