    I am trying to use the methods provided in the following page in order to connect with Sphero, but they do not work for me. I wonder if any one can help me.

    https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/Sphero-SDK-Sample-2b18913c

    Specifically, when setupRobot() is run, no indication of finding any Sphero is shown.

    I am using Ms Visual Studio Community 2017 and Windows 10. 

    Should I necessarily use Windows 8.1 and/or Visual Studio 2013 ? If so, I cannot even add RobotKit.dll to Visual Studio 2013 .

    Hi Sina.M,

    I checked the sample you mentioned. I could run the sample but there is no Sphero ball around me so I get the message dialog saying No Sphero Paired. Since the sample is using Bluetooth RFCOMM, it would be important to make sure both of the devices have turned on Bluetooth.

    The problem is more related to the RobotKit. It is a third party kit and is out of the scope of UWP forum. I suggest that you could ask about this in the official site of the Sphero.

    Best regards,

    Roy
