Sphero RVR+ Programmable Robots for STEAM & Classroom Coding
Transform your STEAM lessons with the Sphero RVR+ programmable robot — the ultimate hands-on tool for coding, robotics, and technology learning. Driven by educators and loved by students, RVR+ brings real-world programming into classrooms from Year 3 to Year 12.
Why Choose Sphero RVR+ for Your Classroom?
Sphero RVR+ isn’t just another robot — it’s a fully programmable, all-terrain robotics platform designed to support inquiry-based learning and computational thinking. Built for education and makerspaces, RVR+ offers a unique blend of play, creativity, and curriculum-aligned coding practice that turns abstract coding concepts into tangible student outcomes.All-Terrain Mobility: Powerful motors and treads allow RVR+ to roll across carpet, classroom floors, and outdoor surfaces without barriers.
Customisable & Expandable: Easily attach third-party hardware like Raspberry Pi, Arduino, micro:bit, or littleBits to expand project possibilities.
Multi-Level Coding: Beginners can drive and control RVR+ with simple Draw and Block coding. Advanced learners can jump into text programming with Python or JavaScript using the Sphero Edu app.
Sensors & Feedback: Built-in sensors (colour, light, accelerometer, gyro) provide rich data for student experiments, data analysis, and project extensions.

Coding for all levels
Get ready to put the pedal to the metal. Introducing Sphero RVR, our most advanced robot to date. Code with Sphero RVR, build on it, and hack the robot of your dreams. Then take it anywhere.
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 Smart and drive it anywhere! When you’re ready to start coding, download Sphero Edu and program your RVR+.
Good for Beginners
Beginners can start out with Draw & Drive before diving into Scratch Blocks. Ready for more? Integrate RVR+'s powerful on-board sensors into your programming projects and coding creations, then share them with the world.
Highly Expandable for Hackers
Take your programming to the next level and hack RVR+. Code RVR+ with JavaScript, expand its capabilities with third-party hardware or go even further using Sphero’s public SDK library. RVR+ is the most complex, expandable robot on the market – with approachable features and capabilities for coders of all skill levels.
What will you build?
Tough and Tenacious
A powerful motor, all-terrain treads, and plenty of torque give you the freedom to drive RVR+ just about anywhere. RVR+ also features a precise, professional-level control system that won’t be deterred by obstacles or uneven surfaces.
Highly Programmable
Build the robot of your dreams and then program it three ways with the Sphero Edu app — Draw & Drive, Scratch Blocks and JavaScript.
Packed with Sensors
RVR+'s on-board sensors include a colour sensor, light sensor, IR, magnetometer, accelerometer, and gyroscope. Navigate RVR+ through a color maze or tap into IR to play with bot-to-bot communication.
Hack RVR+ and transform your robot into almost anything
With RVR+’s 4-pin UART expansion port and on-board power, you can attach and run third-party hardware like a Raspberry Pi, Arduino, micro:bit, or Sphero littleBits. Want RVR+ to be your home security sentry, an autonomous metal detector or an environmental sensor you can control over the internet? Chances are, if you can hack it, RVR+ can do it.
