I am a complete newbie at electronics. So please bear with me.
I would like to create a switch that will turn on a small motor (only needs 1.5-3V DC). I would like to turn on this motor, and after it runs for a certain time, or after something moves for a certain distance, the motor will turn off, or the switch will turn off.
Does anyone have ideas on how to do this?
Basically, the motor will be attached to a pulley, which will pull open a tiny curtain to a picture frame. I am doing this as a Christmas present.
Thank you for any advice you have.
