An information handling system having a first housing, a second housing interoperably coupled to the first housing and movable relative to the first housing between an open configuration and a closed configuration, and a sensor integrated with a housing of the first housing and the second housing. A display integrated with the same housing of the first housing and the second housing as the sensor and a light guide integrated with a different housing of the first housing and the second housing from the sensor, the light guide having an input and an output. In the closed configuration, the input faces a portion of the display and channels light having display attributes from the display to the output and the sensor is at least partially aligned with the output and receives at least some of the channeled light.
