1. A method comprising:

  • receiving an expected sound profile corresponding to a given task for a robotic device from a remote server that aggregates detected sound profiles during performance of the given task by a plurality of other robotic devices;

    detecting, based on sensor data from at least one audio sensor associated with the robotic device, a sound profile during execution of the given task by the robotic device;

    determining one or more differences in amplitude for at least one frequency range between the detected sound profile and the expected sound profile corresponding to the given task for the robotic device;

    in response to determining the one or more differences in amplitude for the at least one frequency range between the detected sound profile and the expected sound profile corresponding to the given task for the robotic device, identifying at least one component of the robotic device associated with the detected sound profile during execution of the given task;

    providing the detected sound profile during execution of the given task by the robotic device to the remote server;

    based on the provided detected sound profile, receiving one or more commands from the remote server for adjusting control data for the at least one component; and

    adjusting the control data for the at least one component of the robotic device.
