Product Description

RVR+ – the fun way to get rolling on building, coding, and computer science skills

RVR+ is Sphero’s revolutionary take on the programmable robot and is optimized for the middle and high school classrooms and makerspaces. It’s drivable right out of the box, packed with a diverse suite of sensors, and built for customization. RVR+ is expandable and made for novice to advanced programmers. Students learn coding & computer science skills and robotics engineering basics with the free Sphero Edu app or advanced programmers can level up with the Public Sphero SDK to program with Python and connect third-party hardware.

Tech Specs Removable cover plate & developer plate with quick-release button Removable, protective roll cage Removable, rechargeable battery 4-pin UART expansion port to connect to any 3rd-party hardware like Raspberry Pi 5V 2.1A USB-A on-board connectivity to power projects using RVR+’s battery Compatible with Sphero Edu app on iOS, Android, Kindle, Mac, Windows & Chrome

Connect & Go

RVR+ is a mobile robot that you can drive right out of the box. Connect your smartphone, tablet, or computer to RVR+ using Bluetooth and the Sphero Edu App and drive it anywhere! When you’re ready to start coding, log in to the Sphero Edu and program your RVR+.

Beginner to Advanced Programming

Beginners can start out with Draw & Drive before diving into drag-and-drop Blocks and JavaScript. Ready for more? Integrate RVR+’s powerful on-board sensors into your programming projects and coding creations, then share them with the world.

Compatible with 3rd-Party Hardware

Take your programming to the next level and create with RVR+. Expand its capabilities with third-party hardware like Raspberry Pi or go even further using Sphero’s public SDK library. Level up your skills by programming RVR+ in Python using the MakeCode, the micro:bit Python editor, or an IDE of your choice.

Swappable, Rechargeable Battery

Keep your programs, inventions, and classroom projects running without any downtime. Replace your battery or power up your RVR+ while your other battery charges. Pick up an additional battery so that driving, coding, and hacking never stops.

GO-ANYWHERE, DO-ANYTHING PROGRAMMABLE ROBOT – Our most versatile programmable robot yet, packed with a diverse suite of sensors and built for customization. Drive RVR+ precisely and accurately right out of the box – no assembly or complicated setup required.
ADVANCED SENSORS & ENHANCED GEARBOX – Packed with on-board sensors including an improved color sensor allowing for more accuracy in programming RVR+ to see colors in its environment, a light sensor, IR, accelerometer, and gyroscope. The RVR+ gearbox has been redesigned to improve torque, payload capacity, and durability to take your inventions further.
PROGRAM IT – Use the free Sphero Edu app for an introduction to computer science and programming. Students can program RVR+ with draw & drive, blocks, or JavaScript. RVR+ can also be programmed using the Sphero Public SDK and API libraries for more advanced hackers and makers, making it the ultimate programming robot for coders of all levels.
BUILD ON IT – Simple enough for a novice to get started, but advanced enough to create anything your imagination can come up with. RVR+s customizable expansion plate allows you connect most third-party hardware including Raspberry Pi, Arduino, micro:bit, and Sphero’s own littleBits.
RECHARGEABLE BATTERY – Optimized rechargeable and swappable battery to keep programs, inventions, and classroom projects running without any downtime.
