*BZZZZZZZZZZ* Feel that? That's your little buzzing motor, and for any haptic feedback project you'll want to pick up a few of them. These vibe motors are tiny discs, completely sealed up so they're easy to use and embed. Two wires are used to control/power the vibe. Simply provide power from a battery or microcontroller pin (red is positive, blue is negative) and it will buzz away. Works from 2V up to 5V, higher voltages result in...

Three rows in a right angle header!? Yes! These chunks of 0.1" header has yet-another-row - handy for when you want to connect cables that come in sets of three, like perhaps sensors, or servos. These plug into any standard 0.1" spacing perf-boards or other PCBs and work nicely with our female-ended wire sets. Comes in a set of four pieces, each piece is 3 rows by 4 rows. You can stack these next to each other in any direction. We...

Get your robot rolling with this durable and smooth metal ball caster. We like the size (not too big, not too small) and surprisingly smooth motion of this caster. It's also really easy to attach, with two screw mounts (and included screws) that will allow you to attach it to any material up to 5mm thick. Ball Caster - 3/4" Metal Ball (7:53)

This glossy poster featuring ADABOT and Asimov's three laws of robotics measures 18 x 24 inches. Comes packed in a cardboard tube for shipping. MADE IN THE USA!   A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.A robot must obey the orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection...

We couldn't let the DC Gearbox "TT" motors have all the fun! If you're using some sort of motor, there's a really good chance it's a low cost DC Motor in "130 Size". We stock these in the shop, they're the most basic kind of motor, very inexpensive and easy to find around the world. DC hobby motors are typically cheap and easy to use, but can be tricky to mount onto your project. There's no...

Who doesn't love LEGO and compatible bricks? Nobody! Except when we accidentally step on them. There are soooo many mechanical things one can make with those ubiquitous bricks, plates, gears, pulleys. Say a 13-meter high LEGO London Tower Bridge... But what do you do when you want to add LEGO-compatible bricks and parts to your robotics project? This is the axle you need! Just push the axle housing end onto the shaft of your DC...

If you bought a servo from us you probably got a bunch of plastic add-ons that you can snap onto the rotating part of the servo. These are called 'servo horns' and the standard ones you'll get are plastic pieces. They're good but often short and not very strong plastic. This Machined Aluminum Servo Arm lets you bring your A-Game to servo projects. It's strong anodized aluminum. Looks great, is easy to install and will last...

Mechanical transmission for the win, this simple plastic pulley can attach to your TT motor to transmit rotation from the motor axle to...somewhere else. This is a very useful part when you require more than wheels for your robotics project. A belt and pulley solution can be light-weight and very efficient.  This TT Motor Pulley has a slot for fitting onto our DC gearbox motors and even comes with a mounting screw for secure...

Sprockets, wheels, and gears, oh my! We really like our DC hobby motors but unless you have a 3D printer it can be a challenge to get fun add-ons. That's why we've got this 3-Bladed Tri-foil Propeller - it snaps on like a breeze (pun intended!) perfect for making a fan, blowing bubbles, or propelling something through the air. Comes 1 x per order

Plastic gear-box motors (also known as 'TT' motors) are an easy and low cost way to get your projects moving. They're low cost, durable, and easy to use. The trade-off for those low cost hobby motors is that they don't have any way of knowing their speed or location. Basically you send voltage in and get rotation out. Really expensive motors have encoders built in, and for these TT motors, we've now got some simple snap-on...

Sprockets, wheels, and gears, oh my! We really like our DC gear motors (a.k.a "TT Motor") but unless you have a 3D printer it can be a challenge to get something attached to the axle. That's why we've got this TT Motor Hub - it snaps onto the end and gives you two big flanges with holes. It's a very good solution to quickly and easily mount custom wheels, cardboard & wood, or other mechanisms to your robot project....

Move fluid from here to there with this very nice elastomeric silicone tubing, specifically for our peristaltic pump. It's one meter long and fully silicone with the correct diameter to give great peristaltic performance. This silicone tubing is not sterile and might get a lil' dirty on its way to you. So, before first use, we recommend it be sterilized by boiling in water, etc! The tubing is neither FDA nor USDA-compliant...

When your little robot needs someone to lean on, it can lean on this support wheel. Perfect for use with 2-wheeled robots that need a third-point of support, this Support Wheel comes attached to a mounting plate and with 4x screws and 4x nuts for fastening to any robot or project. It can rotate a full 360° on the plate and the sleek black metal look suits any robot. Note: Wheel mounts may vary in color.

Your eyes do not deceive you – this is absolutely an AdaBot lunchbox! Whether you're sporting this at school, work, Maker Faire, or jury duty, this beautiful, shiny blue lunchbox is guaranteed to turn some heads. Fill it up with your favorite edible goodies – heck, fill it with your favorite electronic goodies if you want. From bananas to breadboards, jumper wires to jelly beans, and resistors to rugelach, pack...

Need a great drive solution or a pop of color for your little robotic friends? This  TT Motor Paddle Wheel Pack  offers 3 fun, candy-colored wheels with a press-fit design to make connecting super quick and easy. While they seem to be designed for some sort of water-wheel configuration, we like them because they fit securely on TT motor axles and provide a ton of simple attachment points. Use hot glue, strong tape,...

Here at Adafruit, we envision a future where robots, humans, cyborgs, replicants, cylons, and all other types of artificial intelligence and electro-human hybrids will live in absolute harmony.  While we love a great fictional dystopia, we certainly wouldn't want to live in one. That's why we made this glossy, beautiful poster that's designed by artist Bruce Yan.  It features a smiling ADABOT...
