Apple has recently secured a US patent for "Electronic Devices with Edge Illuminators." This innovative patent design offers a low-resolution visual output across various devices by strategically placing light sources along the device's edges, creating a distinctive edge lighting effect. The edge illuminator can be seamlessly integrated into the front, side, or rear edges of the device, allowing for both point and linear lighting options. Furthermore, it can respond to notification events with colors or patterns, communicating information to users without disrupting their ongoing tasks. This versatile technology is not limited to electronic devices like iPhones and Apple Watches but also extends to wearable devices such as smart rings.
