Sphero Bolt Robotic Ball
Moving beyond simple apps that let you pilot a real-life ball through virtual spaces, the Sphero Bolt Robotic Ball works with the Sphero Edu app to let you — or your kid — program it. It has a programmable 8x8 light matrix that can play games, display real-time data, or just let you know which way it's going next. Sensors record and let it react to speed, acceleration, and direction data, a built-in compass means you don't have to aim it, and infrared lets it communicate with other Bolts.
