I have an arduino uno and our task is to program motors to autonomously move for an animatronic. I'm an absolute noob with this stuff and don't know where to start, and my research was to no avail. I would really appreciate any help, thanks in advance.
What motors? Control how...on/off or speed? Forward only or forward/reverse?
There must be thousands of projects that control motors with Arduinos. I'm surprised your research couldn't find even one of them. I just Googled "Arduino animatronic" and got over 100,000 results.

Thanks for the reply. I guess you're right about the research lol. I was looking up "how to program motors to arduino" and I couldn't find much - or at least much I could understand. We're trying to program servo motors to make certain movements within an animatronic - probably just uniaxial movements for things like the mouth, eyebrows, and arms. Coming from Vex and programming with Robot C, we don't really know where to start with a code for such tasks within Arduino, though we have a basic idea of a circuit setup using the uno and a breadboard.

Here is a great example of exactly that; it even senses the environment and acts accordingly.
