Light guide with multiple illumination sources

A computing device, comprising:

• a light guide;
• a pair of illumination sources configured to illuminate the light guide from opposite ends;
• at least one memory;
• and
• at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and configured to cause the computing device to:
• receive input indicating operating parameters of the computing device from one or more input sources;
• determine attributes for light emission from the pair of illumination sources based on the input;
• and
• control the pair of illumination sources to illuminate the opposite ends of the light guide according to the attributes for light emission, with the illumination of each end of the opposite ends indicating a different respective operating parameter of the operating parameters, and with blended illumination between the opposite ends indicating another operating parameter of the operating parameters, and with an amount of the light guide that is illuminated indicating one or more of the operating parameters as a percentage of a maximum, the maximum corresponding to full illumination of the light guide.

A system comprising:

• a light guide formed at least in part by a light guide film;
• a first illumination source arranged at a first end of the light guide and a second illumination source arranged at a second end of the light guide opposite to the first end, the first illumination source and the second illumination source configured to emit light through the light guide toward each other;
• at least one memory;
• and
• an illumination controller to:
• receive input indicating operating parameters of a computing device from one or more input sources;
• determine attributes for light emission from the first illumination source and the second illumination source based on the input;
• and
• control the first illumination source and the second illumination source to illuminate the light guide from the first end and the second end, respectively, according to the attributes for light emission, with the illumination of the first end indicating a first operating parameter of the operating parameters and the illumination of the second end indicating a second operating parameter of the operating parameters, and with an amount of the light guide that is illuminated indicating one or more of the operating parameters as a percentage of a maximum, the maximum corresponding to full illumination of the light guide.
