Abstract: A device includes a first stage keyword detector and a processor. The processor is configured to, based on a signal indicating a keyword detection by the first stage keyword detector and prior to confirmation of the keyword detection, initiate a change of state to enable a voice service that is in a low-power mode to be scheduled for execution on one or more reserved processor cores.

Abstract: A method comprises receiving an input event associated with a first user ID, the input event being a command for selecting at least one graphic object; determining if a selection is currently associated with the first user ID; and if no selection is currently associated with the first user ID creating a first selection; associating the first selection with the first user ID; and including the selected at least one graphic object in the first selection.

Abstract: A packer structure for grouting injects a repair liquid into a crack of a concrete structure. The packer structure includes a packer body having a flange adhered onto the crack and a central tube extending upwards from a central portion of the flange, an elastic tube having a first end connected to a first coupling portion of the central tube, a repair liquid injecting tube having a second coupling portion connected to a second end of the elastic tube and a check valve coupled to the repair liquid injecting tube and preventing the repair liquid from flowing backward; a first coupling cap having an inner circumference surface of a lower portion screwed to the central tube, and a second coupling cap having an inner circumference surface of an upper portion screwed to the repair liquid injecting tube.

Abstract: Provided is a packer structure for grouting which is used to inject a repair liquid into a crack of a concrete structure, the packer structure including: a packer body including a flange adhered onto the crack by a sealer, wherein a groove portion accommodating the sealer is formed on a lower surface of the flange, and a central tube that is a hollow tube extending upwards from a central portion of the flange, wherein a first coupling portion is formed at an upper portion of the central tube, has an external circumference that decreases upwards, and includes a first inclined surface; and an elastic tube having a first end connected to the first coupling portion, wherein the elastic tube inflates and deflates elastically, a repair liquid is contained in the elastic tube while the elastic tube inflates, and the repair liquid is injected into the crack by a deflation force; a repair liquid injecting tube including a second coupling portion connected to a second end of the elastic tube 20, having an external circ

Abstract: The invention provides a method for producing a drip irrigation line, comprising a continuous tubing with spaced-apart drip outlets and a plurality of self-regulating emitter elements for drip irrigation arranged therein, wherein each of said elements is made from a thermoplastic material, injection-molded as a single unit, which material is cross-linked for improved elasticity, said method comprising sequentially introducing a plurality of said emitter elements at predetermined intervals into the extrusion head of a continuous tubing-producing extruder, whereby said elements are each heat-welded within said tubing before the cooling thereof and subsequently cross-linking said thermoplastic material of each of said elements while inside said continuous tubing.
