Sphero's Star Wars BB-8 Droid | Demo

Straight from the new Star Wars movie, BB-8 is an app-enabled Droid with a personality all its own. BB-8 recognizes and reacts to your voice. You can drive or let it explore the surroundings. To be clear, this BB-8 isn’t as big as the one depicted on-screen, and it probably won’t be quite as smart or independent. But hey, it’s a Star Wars droid that you can control from your smartphone or tablet, which is pretty freaking cool. Lucas Matney checks out Sphero's new BB-8 drone.
