There are so many cool Sphero RVR projects that are possible, it’s hard to list them all. We made a list of existing Sphero RVR projects and project ideas.
Sphero RVR Projects and Ideas – Outline
Here is what we’ll be going over in this article about Sphero RVR Projects and Project Ideas.
Sphero RVR Projects – Intro
Lots of Sphero RVR Project Ideas pop to mind since this is such a versatile base. With the UART you can connect things like the Raspberry Pi which can add significant processing power. Using Python for example will give you access to many modules.
It is clear that RVR was made specifically with facilitating projects in mind. So let’s see what we can do with the Sphero RVR.
Sphero RVR Projects
So far, we have only done the basic tutorials that are already in Sphero’s Github.
Another one to check out is how to control the Sphero RVR with a Keyboard using a Raspberry Pi. This is probably one we’ll tackle in the near future as well.
