Sometimes we wonder if robotics engineers ever watch movies. If they did, they'd know that making robots into slaves always ends up in a robot rebellion. Why even go down that path? Here at Adafruit, we believe in making robots our  friends! So if you find yourself wanting a companion, consider the robot. They're fun to program, and you can get creative with decorations. With that in mind, we designed Crickit - That's our C...

Adding to our collection of somewhat specialized motors, this Rotating Door Lock Motor is a DC Gearbox motor with a little pocket that is intended for a door look mechanism. The motor only turns 90 degrees clockwise or counter-clockwise and will stall (but not strip) if you try to keep running it past the angle. It's geared down so it has high torque, but that also makes it slow - it is about 5 seconds for it to rotate 'closed' or...

These are very unusual motors, but we thought they could be handy for projects that need a small geared-down motor. At the core is a 'pager motor' - a small thin DC motor that runs on about 3VDC. That motor is then geared down inside the red-plastic body of the motor. Finally, the output axle is connected to a plastic triangle that has a bent-wire return spring. There are two plastic stops built into the outside of the motor. If you keep...

We really enjoy 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 Eccentric   TT Motor Hub - it gives you 2 x hexagonal holes and two circle holes. It's a very good solution to quickly and easily mount custom wheels, cardboard & wood, or other mechanisms to your robot project. This eccentric hub is...
