Sphero is best known as the creator of toy robots, including popular movie merch for films like Star Wars, Cars, and Spider-Man. But the company has grander ambitions than that: today it announced that it has spun off its advanced robotics division to create a new firm, Misty Robotics, with the goal of putting “a personal robot in every home and office.”

Perhaps the head of a home hub bot, like the Kuri or the Jibo? It’s possible, though...
