Re: Announcing findrobotparts.com

Great site overall; I just have a few observations/suggestions.
  • For numeric specifications (gearbox reduction, motor speed, motor power, etc), narrowing down options by (user-specified?) ranges may be more useful than just selecting exact numbers.
  • Sorting the tables by columns other than the default should be an option.
  • Operating ranges and input voltage (especially if it's not 5V, though I think they all are 5V) may be useful for sensors.
  • CIM compatible mounting is a useful specification to know for gearboxes.
  • Weight would be useful for motors and gearboxes.
  • Wheels and sprockets/pulleys would be my choices for categories to add next if you're looking to expand.
