RVR is an all-terrain, high torque robot – it’s drivable and programmable right out of the box, and has a diverse suite of sensors and built upon the Sphero Edu app.

The rover is customizable. It has a universal expansion port and onboard power, enabling to attach and run third-party hardware like a Raspberry Pi, BBC micro:bit, or Arduino. 

RVR's control system is a professional-level control system, enabling advanced programming and problem solving in robotics.

The rover is customizable. It has a universal expansion port and onboard power, enabling to attach and run third-party hardware like a Raspberry Pi, BBC micro:bit, or Arduino.&nbsp;RVR's control system is a professional-level control system, enabling advanced programming and problem solving in robotics.&nbsp;The RVR has a highly tuned, vector-based, closed-loop control system. RVR uses high-resolution encoders and an onboard 9-axis IMU with proprietary algorithms to drive, correct, and navigate based on heading and relative position.&nbsp;Most programmable vehicles and build-a-bot platforms have no control system, meaning the wheels rotate based on how much raw power you send the motors, so driving to a predetermined, specific location is out of the question. &nbsp;RVR’s control system is engineered so that obstacles, disruptions, and uneven surfaces won’t affect your driving experience.&nbsp;The RVR comes with the Sphero Edu app. The block canvas is based on Scratch. For more advanced users, the JavaScript that powers the blocks can be coded directly. &nbsp;Sphero provides SDKs, code samples and other resources for popular platforms like Raspberry Pi, Arduino, and BBC micro:bit, and more options in the future.&nbsp;Discover this project on <a href="https://ks.sphero.com/?ref=b8tzzh" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kickstarter</a>.
