Get to know indi:
The robot for early learners that is driven by color
Speed into STEAM with indi—the most approachable entry-level learning robot for ages 4+. indi inspires imaginative, play-based learning by empowering kids to design and build their own mazes while creating opportunities for students to learn the basics of coding, solve problems, and nurture computational thinking skills.
- DESIGN AND CREATE: Teach kids to problem solve like an engineer as they design and build colorful, custom mazes for indi to navigate
- SCREENLESS & APP-ENABLED OPTIONS: Kids learn the basics of programming with the included color cards (no screen required) or level up with Sphero’s all-new, simplified drag-and-drop blocks in the free Sphero Edu Jrapp, designed just for indi
- SPARK CREATIVITY: Customize indi with stickers and encourage creative expression and exploratory learning by driving indi through endless mazes and pathways
- HOURS OF FUN, RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX: As soon as kids open their indi, they begin learning cause and effect, pattern recognition, colors, directions, and more as they play at home

How Does indi Work?
Screenless Coding
With indi’s onboard color sensor, young learners can communicate instructions to indi by placing color tiles on the floor that tell it what to do and where to go (and how fast!).
Connected coding
Once kids have mastered screenless programming, they can learn basic block coding concepts in free the Sphero Edu Jr app by reconfiguring how indi reacts to each color: adding new movements, lights, sounds, and even celebrations!
Getting Started
indi is ready to program right out of the box—no setup or device required.
Step 1
Discover how indi reacts to each color tile.
Step 2
Build mazes with endless combinations of color tiles.
Step 3
Strengthen problem-solving skills by navigating the challenging puzzles you build.
indi Resources
Challenge Cards
Young learners can work independently or in groups through self-guided learning with the 15 included Challenge Cards with little to no instruction from the teacher.
