Abstract: A blade for a skate for skating on ice. The blade includes ice-contacting material with an ice-contacting surface for contacting the ice. The ice-contacting surface has a machined longitudinal profile with a radius of curvature that varies smoothly over a majority of the length of the blade. Such a radius of curvature may, in some cases, be an elliptical arc.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and systems for obtaining a plantlet from a plurality of somatic plant embryos, and to the use of a compressible and resilient solid substrate comprising a plurality of hydrophilic and biodegradable polymer fibres, as a germination substrate in a method for germination of a somatic plant embryo.

Abstract: The method is for profiling blades with a belt grinding profiling machine. The blades are mounted into a vise. A vertical position of the template is adjusted by rotating the rotatable knob. The motor is turned on to rotate the grinding belt over the grinding wheel. The guide wheel engages the underside profile of the template. The guide wheel of the template guides movement of the grinding wheel mounted on the common axle by moving the guide wheel along the underside profile of the template. The grinding belt grinds material off the underside of the blade until a portion of the underside profile of the template is copied to the underside of the blade.

Abstract: The blade holder has a movable plate and a fixture. A rotatable bolt in operative engagement with a block attached to the plate. A motor is in operative engagement with the bolt. The motor rotates the bolt to move the plate towards the fixture to grip a first set of blades until a torque threshold value is reached. The processor determines a number of blades included in the set of blades based on the number of rotations of the bolt. A first grinding portion of a rotating abrasive belt is applied against the set of blades (having width (W1)) to sharpen the set of blades. Sliding a vise sideways a distance (W1) until a second grinding portion is aligned on top of the second set of blades.

Abstract: A method is described for initiating a wireless network to connect an electronic device among a set of first-type electronic devices with a second-type electronic device. The method comprising: receiving, at a service server configured to service the set of first-type electronic devices, data pertaining to a user-id; retrieving, from a database, a unique network configuration associated with the user-id, wherein the unique network configuration is known beforehand by the second-type electronic device; selecting, at the service server, an electronic device among the set of first-type electronic devices; and sending, to the selected electronic device, the unique network configuration associated with the user-id for allowing the selected electronic device to initiate a wireless network using the unique network configuration associated with the user-id.

Abstract: For example, a first Bluetooth (BT) device may be configured to operate in a role of a peripheral device over a BT link between the first BT device and a second BT device; and to initiate a role switch to switch the first BT device from the role of the peripheral device to a role of a central device over the BT link between the first BT device and the second BT device, based on a determination that the BT link between the first BT device and the second BT device is to be operated as an audio link to communicate audio data between the first BT device, as an audio source, and the second BT device, as an audio sink.

Abstract: For example, a first Bluetooth (BT) device, which may be capable of configuring a BT link for communication between the BT device and a Human Interface Device (HID). For example, the BT device maty include logic and circuitry configured to identify an HID type of the HID. For example, the BT device may configure a slot allocation setting of the BT link between the BT device and the HID, for example, based on the identified HID type of the HID. In one example, the HID type may include a mouse, or a keyboard. In other aspects, any other additional or alternative HID type may be used.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a controller configured to detect a reconnection single point of failure in a Bluetooth or other Low-Energy wireless connection attempt with a peripheral device and implement a procedure to reconnect with the peripheral device by delaying the reporting of the connection failure to a host processor. Instead, the controller initiates an additional scan on a different frequency band than used in the initial attempt in a further attempt at connecting with the peripheral device.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is system for buffering processor interrupts from active input devices, such as Bluetooth devices, so that they are aligned with a video refresh rate. The system may include a processor that operates in a first operating mode (e.g., a low power mode) and, in response to an interrupt request, switch to a second operating mode (e.g., a higher power mode). The first operating mode may be different from the second operating mode (e.g., each with a different level of power consumption). The system may also include a video subsystem, in communication with the processor, that provides video information at a refresh rate. The system may also include an input subsystem, such as a wireless communication system, in communication with the processor, that receives an activity trigger representing an activity of a input device, such as a human input device, and provides, based on the refresh rate, the activity trigger to the processor as the interrupt request.
