Overview
RVR+ is Sphero's most customizable robot built for middle and high school classrooms where students tackle real-world challenges through code. It features real sensors including color sensor, light sensor, IR, gyroscope, and accelerometer. Students start with block-based coding in the Sphero Edu app and progress to text programming in Python or JavaScript. RVR+ connects with third-party hardware like Raspberry Pi or micro:bit, making it a flexible mobile platform for robotics, engineering, and data-driven experiments across STEM, CTE, and beyond.
