About the indi
The Sphero indi is a four-wheel self-locomoting educational robot designed primarily for early learners. It teaches programming and computational thinking without requiring a screen: students arrange colored tiles that indi detects with its onboard color sensor, causing programmed movement, light and sound responses as it travels through courses and mazes. More advanced activities use the Sphero Edu Jr app to modify these behaviors with simplified block programming.
Typical applications: Education & Training.
