A motor vehicle lock, in particular a motor vehicle bonnet lock. Same is designed with a locking mechanism substantially formed by a rotatory latch and a pawl for cooperating with a locking bolt. In addition, a catch hook is provided for independent and additional securing of a locking bolt. The locking mechanism is provided with a locking mechanism drive and the catch hook is provided with a catch hook drive. According to the invention, the locking mechanism drive and the catch hook drive are optionally actuated by motor vehicle signals.

A hood-integrated vehicle body in which a hood, a bumper, and a fender are integrally formed into a single component so as to reduce the weight thereof is disclosed. The hood-integrated vehicle body includes a front vehicle body part, which is constructed such that a hood is integrally and rotatably connected to a front portion of the front vehicle body part and is openable at a rear side thereof, a lifting unit mounted to the front part of the vehicle so as to rotate the hood, and a locking unit, which is mounted to the front part of the vehicle so as to selectively engage the hood with the front part of the vehicle such that the engagement of the hood is released so as to allow the hood to be opened by means of the lifting unit upon manipulation for opening the hood.

An opening apparatus of a hood of a vehicle for emergency escape includes a hood latch and a safety hook, which constrains a striker formed on the hood to open and close the hood, which opens and closes a front trunk in a vehicle equipped with the front trunk. The opening apparatus includes an emergency lever configured to be installed in the front trunk and an emergency opening mechanism configured to operate the hood latch and the safety hook simultaneously when the emergency lever is operated to release the constraint of the striker.

A latch assembly includes a forkbolt biased to rotate in a first direction about a first pivot point, and a detent biased to rotate in a second direction about a second pivot point, the detent configured to engage with the forkbolt in at least two different positions. The latch assembly further includes a tertiary catch biased to rotate in the first direction. The detent is configured to engage a portion of the tertiary catch and rotate the tertiary catch when the detent is rotated in the first direction.

A vehicle hood lever assembly has a latch mechanism, a latch lever and a striker structure. The latch mechanism has a latching member movable between a hood locking orientation and a hood unlocking orientation. The latch lever attaches to the latch mechanism at a location spaced apart from the latching member movable between a hood. catching orientation and a hood release orientation. The striker structure has a main striker member and a secondary striker member. With the striker structure moving toward the latch mechanism, a surface of the secondary striker member contacts a portion of the latch lever moving the latch lever from the hood release orientation to the hood catching orientation. In response to continued movement of the striker structure toward the latch mechanism, the main striker member engages the latching member and is restrained against further movement with the latching member being moved into the hood locking orientation.

Systems and methods for integrated graphics rendering are disclosed. In certain embodiments, the systems and methods utilize a graphics engine, a video encoding engine, and remote client coding engine to render graphics over a network. The systems and methods involve the generation of per-pixel motion vectors, which are converted to per-block motion vectors at the graphics engine. The graphics engine injects these per-block motion vectors into a video encoding engine, such that the video encoding engine may convert those vectors into encoded video data for transmission to the remote client coding engine.
