It can be programmed in three different ways, depending on age:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>By painting motion paths<\/li>\n<li>By stringing together code blocks via drag &amp; drop<\/li>\n<li>With the help of JavaScript<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Sphero has an acceleration sensor and a gyroscope. Depending on the model, it also contains LEDs and a rotary encoder, which it uses to execute the set motion patterns. The corresponding app Sphero Edu for control is available for iOS, Android, Kindle, Mac, Windows and Chrome.<\/p>\n<h2>More fun with different models<\/h2>\n<p>Sphero is available in different versions and, depending on the model and scope of delivery, offers numerous possibilities for playful activity. For example, the robot can be programmed to run through an obstacle course or be used as a bowling ball. It can also be used as a drive for a car or boat that is built around the ball.<\/p>\n<h2>Sphero Mini<\/h2>\n<p>The<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reichelt.de\/sphero-mini-blau-sphero-m001bl1-p272628.html?&amp;trstct=pol_5&amp;nbc=1\"> smallest Sphero model<\/a> is particularly fast at up to 1m\/s. Cones and traffic cones offer further game variations and are already included in the delivery. In addition, the colored outer shell can be changed using separately available shells. The robot is charged via a USB port.<\/p>\n<h2>Sphero Sprk+<\/h2>\n<span data-view=\"article\" data-artid=\" 272614 \" data-lang=\"de\"><\/span> The Sprk+ has a particularly robust outer shell and is therefore also suitable for outdoor use. The corresponding tape with its printed measuring scale serves as a boundary for labyrinths and obstacle courses. A transmission angle and stickers are also included. After playing, the robot is recharged inductively.<\/p>\n<h2>Sphero Bolt<\/h2>\n<p>The<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reichelt.de\/sphero-bolt-sphero-k002row-p272615.html\"> Sphero Bolt<\/a> distinguishes itself from the other models by its 8&#215;8 LED display on which arrows, smileys or other symbols can be programmed. As the robots have infrared communication, they can interact with each other. For even greater versatility, the included transmission bracket with printed cardinal points and clock and stickers provide even more possibilities. Like the Sprk+, the Sphero Bolt is inductively charged.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Competences in the technical field and enthusiasm for scientific topics begin in childhood.
