8. Some types of jobs and careers the Sphero can provide are:

9. The Sphero already has an adaptation which is a rubber ball that has rubber nubs on it and it encases the Sphero, and it protects the Sphero better and allows it to move through water more gracefully. Here are some predictions about how Sphero might be altered to perform more or different tasks in the future- the Sphero could have a modified antennae (it is inside the Sphero) so you can go greater distance from the Sphero and still be connected to it. Another alteration could be having the Sphero made out of sturdier plastic so it will be harder to break and more resistant to scratches. It also might have an upgraded charger so it chargers quicker and lasts longer.
