WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif., Aug. 19, 2025 /CNW/ — VisionWave Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: VWAV) ('VisionWave' or the 'Company'), a defense technology company specializing in AI-powered sensing and autonomous threat-response systems, today announced two intellectual property updates that seek to strengthen its technology and intellectual property strategy. VisionWave has accelerated prosecution of a continuation patent related to its Radio Wave Finder technology. Further, VisionWave is introducing Evolved Intelligence™ (EI), VisionWave's real-time, embedded AI engine designed for defense-grade autonomy at the edge. USPTO update – Radio Wave Finder continuation On August 12, 2025, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office ('USPTO') issued a first Office Action on the Company's continuation application. The Office Action raised a procedural double-patenting matter that can be addressed via a Terminal Disclaimer; no other substantive issues were identified. VisionWave filed its formal response – including a Terminal Disclaimer – on August 18, 2025, to help expedite examination. The Company filed its response six days after the Office Action, demonstrating timely attention to IP matters. Patent issuance is not guaranteed until granted by the USPTO.

Separately, VisionWave has filed a U.S. trademark application for EVOLVED INTELLIGENCE™ (Serial No. 99317884); registration is not guaranteed and remains subject to standard USPTO examination. Management commentary Noam Kenig, Chief Executive Officer, VisionWave said 'EI is designed to combine logic- and data-driven models with an added reasoning layer, with the goal of enabling more context-aware decision support in real time.' Mr. Kenig continued 'our RF-to-image sensing approach is being developed to improve range and reduce clutter in contested environments.' 'EI is built for deterministic, low-latency decisions at the edge. Our patent-pending multi-planar RF-to-image sensing architecture synchronizes phased arrays with on-device inference to reconstruct high-fidelity target signatures from sparse emissions – cutting clutter and boosting range and precision. Coupled with EI's fusion layer, it is being developed with the goal of improving range and precision in contested EW environments' added, Dr. Danny Rittman, Chief Technology Officer, VisionWave Recent U.S. government initiatives and semiconductor programs underscore broader demand trends for edge-based autonomy. While VisionWave's technologies may be applicable in these areas, the Company has not entered into agreements under such programs. VisionWave's recent IP filings reflect an ongoing strategy to strengthen protection of its inventions and related brand assets. Below is a summary of VisionWave EI offering: Deterministic edge autonomy: bounded-latency inference and control for mission-critical timing.

LILYSILK Launches First-Ever Activewear Line with Innovative SILKERRY™ Fabric
NEW YORK, Aug. 18, 2025 /CNW/ — LILYSILK, the world's leading silk brand dedicated to inspiring people to live spectacular, sustainable lives, has unveiled the SILKERRY™ Collection, its first activewear line crafted from the brand's proprietary silk-enhanced terry fabric. Designed to unite luxury with ease, SILKERRY™ combines the breathable plushness of cotton terry with the naturally cooling, skin-friendly qualities of high-content natural silk. The launch marks LILYSILK's entry into the modern activewear category, offering pieces that transition effortlessly from yoga studios to urban streets. SILKERRY™ redefines terry fabric by weaving natural silk fibers directly into the cotton terry interior, creating an ultra-smooth surface that glides over skin, reduces friction, and helps maintain freshness through silk's natural antimicrobial properties. Its high thermal conductivity draws heat away for instant cooling, while moisture-wicking capabilities keep the wearer comfortable during movement. The outer layer of natural cotton terry provides structure, breathability, and durability, ensuring each piece retains its shape and softness through repeated wear and washing. The creation of SILKERRY™ is rooted in LILYSILK's 15 years of consumer research, which identified a shift in modern lifestyles. Activewear has evolved beyond gym use into an everyday wardrobe staple, with consumers seeking garments that combine functional versatility with refined aesthetics. LILYSILK's response is a collection that meets this demand, offering a seamless balance of elegance and versatility. 'Activewear isn't just for the gym anymore. As fitness, work, and life blend seamlessly, people expect apparel that delivers both style and elegance,' said David Wang, CEO of LILYSILK. 'SILKERRY™ brings the luxury of silk into movement apparel, creating pieces that move effortlessly from yoga mats to city streets.' The debut SILKERRY™ Collection introduces three distinct style lines, each with its own concept and signature piece, and all available in four versatile colorways—Black, Heather, Espresso, and Blush Pink. Seamflow, inspired by the rhythm and structure of city life, blends polished design with easy movement, highlighted by the hip-length, oversized Seamflow Verge Hoodie with practical pockets and a smooth zip closure. Porchlight captures the warmth and ease of everyday living, offering relaxed yet refined silhouettes such as the soft-waistband Porchlight Lounge Shorts, ideal from home to café. Heirloom '89 pays tribute to timeless classics with a touch of vintage sport, anchored by the roomy yet refined Heirloom '89 Zip Jacket, designed for comfort, confidence, and lasting style.

Sea-Doo Ramps Up PWC Connectivity and Switch Pontoons Horsepower for 2026
VALCOURT, QC, Aug. 17, 2025 /CNW/ – Sea-Doo, a brand of BRP Inc. (TSX: DOO) (NASDAQ: DOOO), continues to push the boundaries of what personal watercraft (PWC) life on the water can be through innovative new connectivity features and improvements to the entire Sea-Doo lineup. The award-winning Sea-Doo Switch with its unique blend of accessibility, affordability and modularity continues to provide fun for the whole family with more power than ever before with the addition of the 300 hp supercharged Rotax 1630 ACE engine to various configurations of the Switch family. 'Every year, we push to elevate the Sea-Doo experience for our new and loyal customers alike, who are looking to live their best Sea-Doo Life. We listen carefully to their feedback and respond through continuous improvements to our products featuring innovative and industry-leading technologies with the goal of making our communities feel closer than ever before,' says James Heintz, Global Product Strategy Director, Sea-Doo and Vehicle Connectivity. Taking PWC Connectivity to the Next LevelRiding a Sea-Doo is all about the experience and sharing it with a community of like-minded friends. So, for 2026, more models are getting the intuitive 10.25' Touchscreen Display. Customizable with smart connectivity functions, it shows driving stats, compass, marine navigation with the BRP GO! App which can be enhanced with a Navionics™ subscription, music, and more. First introduced on the 2025 GTX Limited 325, the larger screen was an instant hit with Sea-Doo riders and is now standard equipment on the 2026 RXT-X, FishPro Trophy, Wake Pro and Explorer Pro, and available as an option on the RXP-X. The larger screen not only provides more information at a glance, but also allows riders to track each other on water as well as plan and create itineraries. It also creates some unique features for specific models. For example, on the RXP-X, it adds one more high-performance feature to the mix with Launch Mode managed directly from the gauge for blistering holeshots, giving riders a jump on the competition. On the FishPro Trophy, it provides anglers the opportunity to follow a detailed marine navigation map on the main screen using the BRP GO! Mobile App and then use the Garmin GPS exclusively in fish finder mode to improve the odds of catching the big one. Additionally, on the Wake Pro, the Ski Mode is now controlled directly through the touchscreen offering 5 different ramps that provide unique speed and acceleration to improve rider safety based on a variety of rider skill levels. Ramping Up the Sea-Doo Switch ExperienceSea-Doo's Switch family of pontoon boats continues to offer one of the most accessible, adaptive and fun boating experiences to be found on the water today. Since its award-winning debut in 2022, the Switch family has seen thoughtful updates every year to elevate the overall customer experience. For 2026, those continuous improvements go into overdrive with the availability of the 300 hp Rotax 1630 ACE engine on certain 18′ and 21′ Switch models. Going hand in hand with the new higher output engine is a 60% larger fuel tank, ensuring the fun lasts all day long. In addition, for 2026, all Switch models featuring 230 and 300 hp engines now have a tilting handlebar for better ergonomics and more flexibility for the captain. Additionally, all models now allow depth finder access directly on the dash display, regardless of whether it's the 4.5′ or 10.25″ display. A new optional Tech Package for the Switch Cruise and Sport 18′ and 21′ comes straight from the factory adding 2 corner tables with 2 speakers along with an amplifier, subwoofer and the 10.25' Touchscreen Display. Time on the water will be filled with a great soundtrack and the same intuitive touchscreen capabilities and features that are available on Sea-Doo's new 2026 PWCs. Rear corner doors are a welcome addition to the Switch Cruise and Cruise Limited models, allowing easier accessibility to the rear swim platform. These doors are a must-have for family and friends looking to dive off the back of the swim platform or cruise around the lake on an inflatable tube. The Switch Cruise Limited line now includes an 18′ model featuring the new 300 hp engine and a new bimini gas shock system that makes bimini top deployment and storage both easier and quicker, requiring less effort. The Switch Cruise Limited 21′ is equipped with the same 300 hp engine and bimini gas shock system, but now features a new optional double bimini from the factory that provides 45% more sun coverage and includes 2 sunroof panels should a little more sunlight be needed. Rounding out the continuous improvements of the Switch family is the launch of a new Switch Fish Compact 170 hp model featuring most of the amazing fishing technology that made the Switch Fish a hit last year but only in a smaller package. Accessories play an important role in the Sea-Doo Switch experience, and 2026 sees a wealth of new accessories that make the on-water experience even more enjoyable. A front Dodger increases captain comfort during inclement weather, a BBQ Table with LinQ Lite turns the Switch into a floating diner, a Pop-Up Changing Room and Emergency Toilet allow for some privacy, and a LinQ Rear Floating Mat Holder makes relaxing on a float mat behind the Switch easier than ever. Sea-Doo has the right vehicles, apparel, and accessories to ensure the whole family makes the most out of their time on the water, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
