Makers Empire teams up with Sphero to create custom Ollie racing machines

Robotic toys have revolutionized playtime, offering an educational twist that’s equally enjoyable. The tech-savvy crowd is particularly taken with innovations like Sphero’s Ollie, which has become a crossover hit in robotics, gaming, and racing segments. Capable of reaching exhilarating speeds of up to 22km/hr, it’s not just a toy but an experience that resonates across generations. Interestingly, a close buddy who’s a gaming aficionado recently raved about an 온라인 슬롯 게임 추천, paralleling the thrill he finds in guiding Ollie’s high-speed maneuvers. It seems that the joy of control and the rush of speed are universal pleasures that are being ingeniously catered to by both robotic toys and online gaming platforms.

At Makers Empire we’re huge fans of the Ollie so we’re thrilled to announce a new partnership with Sphero: the Ollie Customizer app powered by Makers Empire lets you change the look of your Ollie with custom hubcaps and accessories.

You can now add personal touches to your Ollie to reflect your own personality. Design custom parts on your favourite tablet, like the best drawing tablet with pen, with the Ollie Customizer app, 3D print then (or have it done for you) and attach them to your Ollie.

You can print them out on your own 3D printer if you have one. If you don’t, simply send your designs away to be printed. Many 3D printing companies offer special finishes, too.
