 This is Ross Minnow with The Verge. One of the best toys that come out of Star Wars The Force Awakens is Sphero's BB-8. This is a fully functioned droid. It's a premium product, but it's definitely been a huge seller. Now next year, Sphero's going to be a little bit crazier with this and they're actually going to add Force Gestures, is what they're calling it. This is actually the wearable. It's going to be called the Force Band. It's coming out later this year, but we are going to try a technical demo. I'm going to stress it off, this is just a technical demo, so some things might not work, some things will work, but let's just give it a shot. We recognize the basic gestures. So if I turn into the Cumb, come to me, and go away. And then that gets you into this driving mode where we can continuously move. There you go. As I come hither, stop, look around, cool. Sphero says the Force Band, and that might even be the final name, is coming out sometime in the fall. The price details, the design's not final, these gestures might change, the name again might change. So right now this is just kind of a sign of what Sphero wants to do with the BB-8, and indeed maybe the entire Sphero lineup itself. Sphero this fall is also releasing a new version of the BB-8. The only difference is really just the aesthetic. It's got the Jakku kind of sand just kind of built in for that. That's also coming this fall. Sphero's hoping to have more details, some more final details at Toy Fair this year, sometime in February. So until then, for more Sphero news, for more BB-8 news, for more anything CES or gadget related, you can check it out on theverge.com or subscribe to our YouTube channel at youtube.com slash the verge.
