WHAT IS THE SPHERO BB-8?
The BB-8 is a fictional droid set to appear in the seventh Star Wars movie, The Force Awakens, which hits cinemas on 17 December. In the film, the BB-8 droid is a physical prop rather than CGI (much like R2-D2) and for the Force faithful this is a welcome revelation.
As such it's no surprise this interactive toy version of BB-8 has been greeted with great interest by both the Star Wars and toy communities. Created by Orbotix, the company famed for Sphero, and available on Firebox.com BB-8 is designed for entertainment purposes and has no discernible educational aspects – which is a good thing.
SPHERO BB-8 – WHAT DOES IT DO?
As this is an app-enabled toy, you’ll need a smart device such as an iPhone or Android phone. Without one the Sphero BB-8 is just an expensive desktop ornament that’ll twitch its head from side to side occasionally, and attract occasional admiring glances, but little else.
