Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosed subject matter can provide techniques for synchronizing data acquisition (DAQ) modules in a data acquisition system. In data acquisition systems where multiple DAQ modules are in use, it can be desirable to synchronize the DAQ modules to facilitate the analysis of signals captured by sensors coupled to those DAQ modules. This way, a signal processing platform, such as a computer, can analyze different sensor signals (e.g., an audio sensor and vibration sensor) without separately compensating for the time difference between the audio and vibration signals. In some embodiments, the synchronization techniques can include an automatic or a semi-automatic mechanism for temporally synchronizing the sensors and for arbitrating the sampling rate between the data acquisition systems.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a session associated with a first hardware device that sends or receives a first data stream and a second hardware device that sends or receives a second data stream may be provided. The session may be used to access information related to the first hardware device and the second hardware device. The accessed information may be used to identify a strategy from among a plurality of strategies for synchronizing either the first data stream and the second data stream or the first hardware device and the second hardware device. The identified strategy may be applied to synchronize either the first data stream and the second data stream or the first hardware device and the second hardware device.
