Abstract
A system to configure a conductive pathway and a method of forming a system of configurable conductivity pathways include a photosensitive layer that becomes conductive based on photoexcitation, and a light source layer deposited over the photosensitive layer, the light source layer selectively providing the photoexcitation to the photosensitive layer. The system further includes a controller to control the light source layer, the controller illuminating a portion of the light source layer corresponding with a user input image to photoexcite the photosensitive layer and configure the conductive pathway in the photosensitive layer according to the image.
