Abstract: A digital thermometer includes a first oscillator to generate a first clock signal, wherein a period of the first clock signal remains constant in view of changes in a temperature of the apparatus and a first counter coupled to the first oscillator, the first counter to count a fixed number of cycles of the first clock signal associated with a measurement period. The digital thermometer further includes a second oscillator to generate a second clock signal, wherein a period of the second clock signal varies with changes in the temperature and a second counter coupled to the second oscillator, the second counter to generate an output representing a count of a number of cycles of the second clock signal that occur during the measurement period. In addition, the digital thermometer includes calibration circuitry coupled to the second counter, the calibration circuitry to calibrate the output of the second counter to generate a value representing the temperature of the apparatus.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a solid phase matrix comprising a layer of lignocellulosic fibers that can be used as effective cargo delivery for crop protection. Also disclosed is a mechanized planter for wrapping or encasing a plant seed, seed piece, seedling, or slip into the disclosed solid phase matrix. Also disclosed is a method for protecting a plant or plant that involves wrapping or encasing the plant or plant part in the disclosed solid phase matrix.

Abstract: One example provides a computing device including a first portion including a first display, a second portion including a second display and a camera, the second portion connected to the first portion via a hinge, a hinge angle sensing mechanism including one or more sensors, a logic device, and a storage device holding instructions executable by the logic device to execute a camera application and to receive sensor data from the one or more sensors, based at least in part on the sensor data received from the one or more sensors, determine a device pose, output the camera application to the first display when the device pose is indicative of the camera being world-facing, and output the camera application to the second display when the device pose is indicative of the camera being user-facing.

Abstract: A valve assembly is adjustable in three independent ways allowing it to provide a variable input volume. The valve assembly has a base and an entrance plate. An outer guide, an inner guide and a shaft, each with a passage, are held together and the shaft is rotatable between the guides. The valve is open when the passages of the inner guide plate and shaft are aligned and closed when the passages are not aligned. The shaft RPM determines how many times per minute the valve opens. The open/closed ratio of the valve assembly determines how long the valve is open during each half revolution. The location of the shaft up or down in relationship to the inner guide determines what percentage of possible flow passes through the valve during each half revolution. The valve assembly can be used with either a gas or liquid medium.

Abstract: Examples are related to operating a user interface of a dual-screen computing device. One example provides a computing device, comprising a first portion comprising a first display and a first touch sensor, and a second portion comprising a second display and a second touch sensor, the second portion connected to the first via a hinge, the hinge defining a seam between the first display and the second display. The computing device is configured to receive a touch input at the first display moving an application that is currently displayed on the first display and not on the second display toward the second display, detect the touch input releasing the application within a predetermined area, and span the application across the first display and the second display.

Abstract: A system and a method are provided for directly communicating merchandise requests with vendors. The system and method enable customers to directly communicate with desired vendors to submit merchandise order requests with the necessary product information for the vendor to clearly identify. The user account enters a part order request for a specific vendor account. Once the part order request has been submitted by the user account, the part order request is relayed from the user account to the specific vendor account. Then, the specific vendor account accepts or declines the part order. Afterwards, the user account accepts or declines an order quote for the part order request, if the part order request is accepted by the specific vendor account. Then, a financial transaction for the part order request is executed between the user account and the specific vendor account, if the order quote is accepted by the user account.

Abstract: A wax ring tray configured to store a wax ring therein includes a base, a first flexible member and a second flexible member. The first and second flexible members are positioned radially outward from a center of the base, and extend from the base to respective first and second ends. The first flexible member and the second flexible member are configured to transition between respective first positions and second positions. In the first position of the first flexible member, the first end of the first flexible member is positioned radially outward relative to the first end in the second position. In the first position of the second flexible member, a second end of the second flexible member is positioned radially outward relative to the second end of the second flexible member in the second position.
