Abstract

An active panel system for implementation in a computer such that at least one case panel of the computer comprises one or more active panels. An active panel is a device that may be disposed in, or replace, a panel of the computer case. The active panel has a variable transparency which is dynamically or programmatically controllable by a user or a controller. An embodiment of an active panel system may be implemented in a computer, for example, to artistically embellish the computer case as well as to alter the transparency of the case such that the contents of the computer case are viewable from the exterior of the computer case without opening the case.
