  • Patent number: 10728796
    Abstract: A method for Bluetooth communication, a Bluetooth system and an electronic device are disclosed. The Bluetooth system includes: a data source device, a primary device and at least one secondary device. The primary device is configured to acquire, via Bluetooth communication, first data packets delivered by a data source device as a first data packet set and the secondary device is configured to acquire, via data interception, second data packets from the data source device as a second data packet set within at least a portion of a time period in the Bluetooth communication. The primary device communicates with the secondary device in a predetermined interaction node and sends the missing data packet from the first data packet set according to the details of acquisition of the data packets from the data interception.

  • Patent number: 10581998
    Abstract: A method for Bluetooth communication includes: in Bluetooth communication, allocating bandwidth resources as a first bandwidth resource for communication with a data source device and a second bandwidth resource for communication with a slave device; in the communication with the data source device, receiving and caching data from the data source device; in the communication with the slave device, determining whether the volume of the cached data is less than a first threshold; and if the data volume of the cached data is less than the first threshold, using at least a portion of the second bandwidth resource for the communication with the data source device.

  • Patent number: 10375640
    Abstract: A method for switching Bluetooth working modes, an electronic device, and a Bluetooth chip are disclosed. The method includes: executing a first Bluetooth working mode, the first Bluetooth working mode including a working state in which data is normally transmitted and an error state in which data fails to be transmitted; monitoring a first interrupt request signal sent in a second Bluetooth working mode if the first Bluetooth working mode works in the working state; and executing the second Bluetooth working mode and enabling the first Bluetooth working mode to work in the error state if the first interrupt request signal is present.

  • Publication number: 20180325210
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing an article of footwear includes providing a base portion of the article of footwear and providing a sheet. A pneumatic pressure differential is applied to the sheet to displace the sheet toward the base portion and shape the sheet against the base portion. The sheet is coupled to the base portion. Excess material is removed from the sheet such that a remainder of the sheet defines a portion of the article of footwear.

  • Patent number: 10091765
    Abstract: A method for forwarding Bluetooth data, an electronic device, a Bluetooth device, and a Bluetooth system are disclosed. The method includes: in a Bluetooth communication process, receiving source data from a data output device as cached data, and forwarding the source data; and preferentially allocating a Bluetooth communication bandwidth to receive the source data if a data volume of the cached data is less than a first predetermined threshold; or preferentially allocating a Bluetooth communication bandwidth to forward the source data if a data volume of to-be-forwarded source data is greater than a second predetermined threshold.
