A microfluidic apparatus for delivering droplets of a first fluid to droplets of a second fluid, comprising a main channel, with a carrier fluid carrying droplets of the second fluid, an auxiliary channel, fluidly coupled to the main channel at a first intersection via a first orifice with a first fluid interface, and at a second intersection downstream to the first intersection via a second orifice with a second fluid interface, wherein a flow of the carrier fluid induces a difference of pressure between the first and second orifice generating a balance condition such that a meniscus of the second fluid interface is maintained in the auxiliary channel, at the vicinity of the second orifice, wherein a balance deviation triggers a release of a volume of the first fluid from the second fluid interface into the main channel.

The disclosure relates to methods and systems for provisioning a network-connectable device. A communication tunnel is formed for transmitting data between the network-connectable device, a mobile terminal and a remote server. The communication tunnel includes a first link initiated using a webview embedded in an application on the mobile terminal and a second link initiated using a library attached to the webview. The first link connects the mobile terminal with the remote server. The second link connects the network-connectable device with the remote server through the mobile terminal. A data packet indicating that the network-connectable device is ready to be provisioned is received through the communication tunnel. A request for providing provisioning data is sent through the communication tunnel based on the data packet. Provisioning data are transmitted through the communication tunnel in response to sending the request. The network-connectable device is provisioned using the provisioning data.
