With Watchdog for Sphero, you can position your phone for surveillance of an area of your home, and whenever the camera detects any motion in that area, Sphero will roll towards the intruder with a challenge. Good fun for pets, friends, and relatives, but don't rely on it to protect the family jewels :)
IMPORTANT: YOU NEED A SPHERO ROBOTIC BALL TO USE THIS APP. https://www.sphero.com
