Sphero

Designed for ages 10+, RVR+ by Sphero is a drivable robot right out of the box, packed with a diverse suite of sensors and built for customization. RVR is a mobile platform for hackers, makers, educators, and learners.

Download the Sphero Edu app to drive or program RVR all over. It is equipped with all-terrain treads, a powerful motor and plenty of torque so you can go faster and farther. Obstacles or uneven surfaces won't affect RVR's ability to drive straight. Thanks to a sophisticated vector-based control system, RVR goes where you want it to go. RVR’s extremely hackable platform with a 4-pin UART and an onboard power source, allows you to connect and run third-party hardware like a Raspberry Pi, BBC micro:bit, Arduino or Sphero's own littleBits.

What’s included:

RVR+ mobile robot

Removable cover plate and developer plate with quick-release button

Removable protective roll cage

Removable and rechargeable battery

Universal, 4-Pin UART expansion port for connecting 3rd party hardware like Raspberry Pi, or micro:bit (products sold separately)

5V 2.1A USB-A onboard connectivity to power your projects using RVR+’s battery

Sphero Edu app (available for download on iOS, Android, and Chrome OS)

Discover a fun and imaginative way to learn programming with Sphero Mini! This compact robot, measuring about the same size as a ping pong ball, is perfect for beginners, offering intuitive coding and a range of features that make it a fun and engaging tool for exploring the world of STEAM. Equipped with a gyroscope, accelerometer, and colorful LED lights, this educational coding robot is more than a robot toy. And with an interchangeable shell, Sphero Mini can be customized to suit your mood!

Sphero Mini Features and Benefits:

Programming for beginners: Sphero Mini provides three programming canvases suitable: Draw, Blocks, and Text in the Sphero Edu app, allowing young students the ability to quickly learn how to code, control the robot's movements, and customize its features.

Expansive activity library:The free Sphero Edu app offers an array of activities that teach computer science concepts and enhances learning in core subjects like math, science, and ELA, making it easy for educators to incorporate STEAM into their curriculum. In the Sphero Play App (recommended for home), you can use Mini a game controller for arcade-style games.

Packed with tech: Sphero Mini contains a gyroscope, motor encoders, and accelerometer, as well as a bright, colorful LED to add an extra layer of excitement to the learning process.

Tabletop friendly: Mini is small enough for tabletop learning but sturdy enough to roll around on the floor. Learners can easily maneuver the robots around their desks or workspaces, encouraging hands-on learning and interaction in a space-efficient manner.

Exciting accessories: Mini comes with cones and pins that can be used to create a range of engaging activities, from navigating mazes to robot races!

Speed into STEAM with this indi kit designed to engage kids ages 4+ in hours of exciting exploratory learning and play at home. Perfect for anyone looking to equip their young learners with coding, computational thinking, and problem-solving skills, the indi At-Home Learning Kit provides hours of self-guided, screenless engagement. Kids will discover how to communicate instructions to indi with colour cards, solve puzzles, and direct indi through mazes they dream up. Once they’ve mastered screenless programming, kids can learn block coding concepts by changing how indi reacts to different colour cards in the Sphero Edu Jr app.

Design & Create: Teach kids to problem solve like an engineer as they design and build colorful, custom mazes for indi to navigate

Screenless & App-Enabled options: Kids learn the basics of programming with the included colour cards (no screen required) or level up with Sphero’s all-new, simplified drag-and-drop blocks in the free Sphero Edu Jr app, designed just for indi

Spark Creativity: Customize indi with stickers and encourage creative expression and exploratory learning by driving indi through endless mazes and pathways

Hours of fun, right out of the box: As soon as kids open their indi, they begin learning cause and effect, pattern recognition, colours, directions, and more as they play at home

The Sphero Mini Activity Kit has everything you need to get rolling and playing. Drive and game with the Sphero Play App or code and learn with the Sphero Edu App. Complete all the challenges and games and then create your own fun—the possibilities are endless.

Each Kit comes with a clear-shelled Sphero Mini, construction set, 15 STEM-inspired activity cards, bowling pins, and cones to build mazes, design obstacle courses, construct towers, play croquet, and more.

Control your robot toy using various drive modes or use Sphero Mini as a game controller for arcade-style games with the Sphero Play app.

Learn to code by using the Blocks drive mode for basic drag and drop coding commands or take your programming further with the Sphero Edu app.

Sphero Mini contains programmable LED lights that glow in tons of colors, a gyroscope, motor encoders, and accelerometer sensors.
