Time-stamping of industrial cloud data for synchronization

A method, comprising:

• receiving, by an industrial device comprising at least one processor, a synchronization signal from a cloud platform;
• synchronizing, by the industrial device, an internal clock of the industrial device with a cloud clock associated with a motion planning system that executes on the cloud platform;
• sending, by the industrial device, feedback information to the motion planning system via the cloud platform, the feedback information indicating a current state of a motion device controlled by the industrial device;
• receiving, by the industrial device from the cloud platform, a coarse interpolated motion profile generated by the motion planning system based on the feedback information, wherein the coarse interpolated motion profile defines a trajectory of the motion device as a set of time-series position values or velocity values having a first update rate;
• adding, by the industrial device, interpolated position values or velocity values between the set of time-series position values or velocity values to yield a final motion profile comprising an updated set of time-series position values having a second update rate that is greater than the first update rate;
• and
• controlling motion of the motion device based on the final motion profile.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon instructions that, in response to execution, cause a computing system to perform operations, the operations comprising:

• communicatively coupling an industrial device to a cloud platform;
• synchronizing an internal clock of the industrial device with a master clock associated with a motion planning system executing on the cloud platform;
• sending feedback information generated by the industrial device to the motion planning system via the cloud platform, wherein the feedback information indicates a current state of an industrial motion device controlled by the industrial device;
• receiving, from the cloud platform, a coarse interpolated motion profile generated by the motion planning system based on the feedback information, wherein the coarse interpolated motion profile defines a trajectory as a set of position or velocity values over time at a first update rate;
• interpolating additional position or velocity values between the set of position or velocity values to yield a final motion profile comprising an updated set of position or velocity values over time at a second update rate greater than the first update rate;
• and
• controlling motion of the industrial motion device in accordance with the final motion profile.
