I am building a full scale BB-8 from Star Wars. I'm printing the shell with a Makerbot Replicator 2X and a Form1+. I'm starting to look into robotics to control the movement for torso and head as well as audio and lights. I want to eventually have a Kinect sensor sense objects so that it can do "goto" and "follow me" commands.
