During a visit to Boulder, Colorado and Colorado University, U.S. President Barack Obama was caught on video test driving a Sphero — an iPhone controlled rolling robot. Obama first watches the Sphero roll around, remarking "how cool is that, you can make the ball do all kinds of stuff", before taking the iPhone and taking control of the robot himself. Surrounded by Secret Service — and co-eds — the President of the United States gave it a whirl, seemed to enjoy himself, and complimented the inventor, a Boulder native.
We've had the opportunity to try out Sphero a couple of times at CES, and if you like iPhones and robots, it's definitely something to check out. Video below.
Thanks Obi!
