The only differences between the bots are their names and the port they'll be
using.

Now we can define the basic robot both of our Sphero robots will be based on.

Both robots will be connecting to Spheros, and so using the cylon-sphero
adaptor:
connection: { name: 'Sphero', adaptor: 'sphero' },
connection: { name: 'sphero', adaptor: 'sphero', port: port },
And both will be connecting to the same kind of device (you guessed it,
a Sphero).

Now that we know what hardware the robots have and what work they'll be doing,
let's create them! We'll iterate through our earlier `bots` array, creating
a new Robot, assigning it it's unique characteristics, then passing it off to
Cylon so it can keep track of it.
for (var i = 0; i < bots.length; i++) {
var bot = bots[i];
var robot = Object.create(SpheroRobot);
robot.connection.port = bot.port;
robot.name = bot.name;

}
});
And now that Cylon has all the robots we're intending to give it, let's get
started!
