1. A spherical assembly comprising:

  • a spherical encasing;

    a first motor connected to a first weight and the spherical encasing;

    a second motor connected to a second weight and the spherical encasing; and

    a controller, operatively coupled to the first motor and to the second motor, and configured to;

    cause the first motor to rotate the first weight in a first direction at a first rotational speed based on a rotational speed of the spherical assembly;

    cause the second motor to rotate the second weight in a second direction at a second rotational speed based on the rotational speed of the spherical assembly; and

    cause the first motor to change the first rotational speed of the first weight in relation to the second rotational speed of the second weight to change a direction of travel of the spherical assembly.
