Abstract: The technology provides for a robotic control system implemented on a distributed system, which may include at least one processor on a cloud computing system and at least one processor on a robot. For instance, configuration data for a plurality of controllers of the robot may be received and the plurality of controllers may be deployed on the distributed system. For example, a first controller may be deployed on the cloud while a second controller may be deployed on the robot. The system may include a cloud database and a robot database. Both databases may store configuration data and current states of the first controller and the second controller, and may be synchronized. Workload for the first controller and the second controller may both be controlled based on the configuration data and the current states of the first controller and the second controller.

Abstract: A method and system include identifying a plurality of media clips pertaining to an event, for each pair of the plurality of media clips, calculating pairwise relative time offsets for pairs of media clips from the plurality of media clips, calculating, by a processing device, an inconsistency measure, in which the inconsistency measure of a pair of media clips is calculated using at least three relative time offsets and one of the at least three relative time offsets is a relative time offset of the pair of media clips, and synchronizing the plurality of media clips based on resulting calculated inconsistency measures.
