Abstract

An optical detector for use within a chassis of an information handling system includes an internal illuminator, photodetector, and signal processor. The internal illuminator is configured to emit light to illuminate an object within a predetermined region of the chassis of the information handling system. The photodetector is configured to absorb the light across a color spectrum in response to the light being reflected from the object and to convert the light into an electrical signal. The signal processor is communicatively coupled with the photodetector and is configured to convert the electrical signal into coordinates of a predefined color space. The coordinates of the color space correspond to the color of the object. The signal processor is configured to identify the object in response to the coordinates matching a predetermined set of coordinates associated with the object.
