Abstract: A connecting device that connects a battery housing to a rear car bodyshell of a body of an electric passenger motor car. The connecting device includes a crossbeam and a plurality of fixing sleeves that are disposed in the crossbeam. Each of the plurality of fixing sleeves are passed through by a respective screw element to connect the battery housing to the rear car bodyshell by the crossbeam. The plurality of fixing sleeves each have a crash structure which is deformable when absorbing energy in an event that an accident of the electric passenger motor car causes movement of the rear car bodyshell relative to the battery housing.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for managing the sensory stimulus generated by a head mounted display (HMD). One method includes identifying a game state of a game being executed for a current session by a computer for display on a head mounted display (HMD) for a user. Then, determining a game intensity value for said game state based on user intensity feedback received from one or more prior gaming sessions by users. The user intensity feedback describes levels of sensory stimulus obtained from the users during user play of the game via an HMD of the respective users, and the determined game intensity value is calculated by analysis of the levels of sensory stimulus received from the users. Processing the game intensity value to cause a higher rendering priority to a viewpoint of the user's gaze than regions outside of the viewpoint. The viewpoint is a portion of the display of the HMD.
