Abstract: The invention relates to a battery device (10) for a motor vehicle, having a plurality of battery cells (12) which are accommodated in a housing and rest at least against a heat-conducting potting compound (20) or a heat-conducting pad, which potting compound or pad rests against at least one structural component (22) of the battery device (10), as a result of which heat (14) can be dissipated from the battery cells (12) to the structural component (22) via the heat-conducting potting compound (20) or the heat-conducting pad.

Abstract: An integrated bag and toy product is provided. The product may include a body that may define a storage cavity. The product may include a bag body that may include a strap secured to the body at a fixed location. The product may be manipulateable between a stored position in which the bag body and the strap may be received within the storage cavity and a deployed position in which the bag body and the strap may extend outside of the storage cavity.

Abstract: A finger sensing device may include an integrated circuit (IC) substrate and an array of pixels on the IC substrate. Each pixel may be selectively operable in at least a receiving mode for receiving radiation from an adjacent finger, or a transmitting mode for transmitting radiation into the adjacent finger. The finger sensing device may also include a controller coupled to the array of pixels for selectively operating at least one first pixel in the receiving mode, and while selectively operating at least one second pixel in the transmitting mode. Each pixel may also be selectively operable in a mask mode for neither receiving nor transmitting radiation. The controller may also selectively operate at least one third pixel in the mask mode while selectively operating the at least one first and second pixels in the receiving and transmitting modes.
