Wonder if they asked nicely for the BB-8 SDK or reverse engineered it?

Sphero is kind enough to grant access to their SDK: https://developer.gosphero.com.

Last I checked the SDK didn't support the BB8. Has that changed?

Not sure what changed, but the SDK doesn't place any technical restrictions on being used on the BB-8. It works just fine.

I think BTLE wasn't there the last time I looked. Awesome, I'll have a play with this soon. Thanks for the info.

There's no easily locateable method to wake the BB8 via the SDK.
