Sphero- Taking students from Zero to Hero...

[Haptic]

Occasionally you come across a piece of tech that makes you think... and then very rapidly makes you think "where can I get one?!", for team CP this has happened with the discovery of the Sphero.

 

Remember using LOGO to program that pen wielding Turtle? Imagine if you will that Turtle evolved through the troublesome Teenage Years (where it picked up a penchant for martial arts and pizza), then evolved further; this is getting close to Sphero.

 

You can program it

You can create Apps for it

You can race it

You can augment reality

You can control Apps with it

 

 

 

The below links go into more depth as to its capabilities within education

Having a Ball with Code- Can Sphero inspire the next generation of programmers?

 

We will be running a promotion featuring these beasties shortly- stay tuned, we will also be posting videos of our capers with the Sphero (Spherical fruit based shenanigans on the horizon...).

Is there a Logo-like programming language available for it? I'm rather thinking a giant-sized Marbel Run, with programmable sections...

.....great uptake so far and forgot to mention there are discounts available when purchasing multiple units.
