Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Sphero’s new rolling robot can swim, paint, and teach kids to code”.
Hey, it’s been popper with The Verge, I’m here hanging out with Spiros newest product. The spark plus this little ball is aimed at the education market. It’S meant to teach kids about robotics and coding and just to make all kinds of lessons more fun. We went through a bunch of stuff.

Today I got to drive a chariot that was built. I had a boat and this little thing swam around I made some art and program my way through a maze. It comes with an app lightning lab that lets. You do drag-and-drop coding and you can also sort of peek inside with those little modules and see what the actual code looks like behind it, and it’s also kind of like a social network. You can upload your ideas for lessons. You can like people stuff and leave comments, and you can share lesson plans with people around the world so right now the original spark is in about a thousand schools across the US and Canada, and this one that’s coming out is the same price $ 129. It’S got a tougher skin, so it won’t scratch. It’S got smarter Bluetooth, so it’s easier to connect, but other than that. It’S pretty much. The same thing spiros had a lot of success over the last year. With this there’s a whole bunch of different sphero’s, there’s the normal one, the rough-and-tumble one for outdoor is the one that’s tied in with Star Wars, merchandising, the one that’s most interesting to me as a parent is the educational one. It’S meant to teach your kids about computer science and help them get the kind of jobs that are going to be available before the robots. Take them all from us. Much better mic. Sorry! .
