The Internet of Things (IoT) is a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals, or people that are provided with unique identifiers and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human interaction. Nowadays the use of IoT in industrial robots is very popular contrary to humanoid robots. There have been a few attempts that combine IoT with humanoid robots but they have limited features. This paper proposes a novel open-source platform Android application for controlling a humanoid robot, with more features than other research projects, in remote areas either behind NAT (Network Address Translation) or without it. The user can view what the robot is seeing through the Android application and can also move it. Additionally, our system has the ability to deliver real-time audio through our application. We envision that our proposed system is not only an attractive solution for many telerobotic applications but also an extensive educational tool in special needs education.
