Turning an Arduino servo motor to emulate turning of handle bars

I need to turn a servo to roughly emulate handle bars of a bike being turned. I have a list of latitiude and longitude coordinates each spaced two seconds apart to work off.

Hey Connor,
You can use MATLAB to control servo motors with arduino.
Support Packages Needed -
  1. Arduino Support from MATLAB : https://www.mathworks.com/hardware-support/arduino-matlab.html
  2. Arduino Support from Simulink : https://www.mathworks.com/hardware-support/arduino-simulink.html
% To connect with arduino on COM3 USB port
a = arduino('COM3', 'Uno', 'Libraries', 'Servo');
% To connect servo motor on D9 pin of arduino
s = servo(a, 'D9');
%% Sample code to move your servo motor to desired location
for angle = 0:0.2:1
writePosition(s, angle); %% 0<= angle <=1
current_pos = readPosition(s);
current_pos = current_pos*180;
fprintf('Current motor position is %d degrees\n', current_pos);
pause(0.01);
end
