在人工智慧 (AI) 機器人盛行的年代,想寫程式讓機器人動,不再只是專家獨有的特權,適合各種年紀的程式設計學習機器人紛紛出籠。智能娛樂機器人公司 Sphero 創立於 2010 年,隔年開始陸續推出 Sphero、Sphero 2.0、Sphero Ollie… 等多款智能娛樂玩具。而「星際大戰七部曲:原力覺醒」中可愛討喜的機器人BB-8,更是他們的知名代表作。

它結合了遊戲與程式語言學習,透過簡單的手機或平板的APP來操作,使得程式設計不再困難、而且十分有趣。不單單只能自己玩,也可以揪團大家一起玩,還可以搭配各式實體或虛擬場景,讓這場程式遊戲變得更加好玩!除了自己完成一切實踐活動之外,亦可以將程式上傳到社群中與世界各地的大家一同分享、討論,匯聚眾人之力共創學習旅程。
