Abstract

Methods, systems, and storage media for synchronizing network devices are disclosed herein. An embodiment may include sending a control signal to each of multiple devices that have device operations that are perceptible together, the control signal to control the perceptible device operation of each device. Timing information may be received from each device indicating timing of perceptible operation of the device relative to the control signal. Synchronizing control signals may be determined from the timing information to control the device operations to be perceptibly synchronous, and the synchronizing control signals may be sent to the devices to provide perceptibly synchronous operation of them.
