- Additional Information
- - This product is an educational robot (toy/learning tool) not a B2B industrial or commercial robot. It is designed for STEAM education, ages 4+. The listing is from Creative Hut (a reseller), not Sphero directly. - Programming is unplugged (color tiles) or via free Sphero Edu Jr app (block-based/draw). No Python/ROS/teach pendant. - Price tier inferred from single-unit price ~£146 inc VAT (≈$185 USD) so well under 10K. - Competes with other educational robots like Botley, Dash, Ozobot, etc. - No payload, reach, DOF, IP rating, or any industrial specs — these are irrelevant for this category. - Target buyer: schools, homeschool educators, parents. - Customer support available via UK reseller Creative Hut; phone 0800 779 7242.
