Abstract: An information handling system has a chassis and a lid, the lid rotating between a closed position and a tablet position. An indicator coupled to the lid, such as a magnet, aligns with a first detector coupled to a chassis of the information handling system, such as a Hall effect detector, in the tablet position so that the detector signals to a position detector module to disable a keyboard of the information handling system. The indicator aligns with a second detector coupled to the chassis in a closed configuration so that the second detector signals to the position detector module to enter a power down state.

Abstract: A light sensor apparatus includes a support surface. A wall is located adjacent to and spaced apart from the support surface. A light aperture is defined by the wall. A light sensor is coupled to the support surface by an extendable member, whereby the extendable member is operable to adjust the distance between the support surface and the light aperture such that the light sensor is located adjacent the light aperture. The light sensor apparatus may be used to align an ambient light sensor on an information handling system with a light aperture defined by a cover wall on the information handling system chassis such that the light aperture can remain relatively small while still allowing the required amount of light to reach the light sensor in order for the light sensor to function.
