    Abstract: Example implementations may relate to a cloud service that stores a detection metric corresponding to a maintenance request for a particular component. In particular, the cloud may receive sensor data from various robotic systems each having the particular component. The cloud may then determine, based on the sensor data, performance data for the particular component over time at the various robotic systems. The cloud may also determine various maintenance events for the particular component. Based on the performance data, the cloud may determine that at least one maintenance event occurs at other metrics that are different from the detection metric. Responsively, the cloud may adjust the detection metric based on a difference between the detection metric and the other metrics. The cloud may then detect operation of a particular robotic system at the adjusted detection metric and may responsively request maintenance for the particular component at the particular robotic system.

    Abstract: A device is provided that comprises a hardware segment and an actuator to adjust a position of the segment within a range of positions. The device also comprises an encoder to rotate about an encoder axis responsive to the actuator adjusting the position. The device also comprises data storage that includes a dataset indicating offset angles between a reference configuration and a plurality of configurations of the encoder. The device also comprises a controller to cause the actuator to adjust the position to an end of the range of positions, responsively identify a range of encoder positions of the encoder that corresponds to the range of positions of the segment, modify the dataset such that the reference configuration corresponds to an end of the range of encoder positions, and determine a mapping between the offset angles indicated by the modified dataset and the range of positions of the hardware segment.
