Here, the robot used is a linkage of several Dynamixel servo actuators, which will control the motion of each joint in the robot body. As higher the degree of freedom, the higher the complexity of controlling the robot. Mathematical computation makes a major impact in the sense of controlling a robot, commonly in a higher degree of freedom robot. IoT plays a major role in controlling and manipulating objects in the physical world. It leads to the rapid growth of technologies that brings a better solution to control the robot remotely. As control is cloud computing, it has the advantage of rapid deployment and automatic software integration with robots. Much open-source firmware is available. In this paper, NODEMCU is used as a communication and controlling component for the robot, to show the effectiveness of implementing IoT in robot control. The used firmware should be Wi-Fi enabled and communicated through the mobile app. The different movements of the snake will be impended to observe the robot’s capability. As a result, the work proposed will conclude with an efficient way to control a complex robot in a demanding situation.
