Abstract

Systems and methods for detecting a keyboard's position with respect to a display of a multi-form factor Information Handling System (IHS) are described. In some embodiments, an IHS may include: a processor; and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by the processor, cause the IHS to: identify, using an infrared (IR) transceiver, a position of a keyboard disposed on a surface of a display; and render a graphical feature on the display based upon the position.
