摘要： An illuminable keyboard includes a plurality of lights, such as electroluminescent lights, sized and positioned to illuminate one or more of the individual keys on a keyboard. More than one electroluminescent light may be included on an individual key to thereby allow different portions of the key to be illuminated. Each of the electroluminescent lights may be controlled independently of the other lights. A controller for controlling each of the electroluminescent lights allows a computer to activate selected ones of the lights, control the brightness of the selected lights, and also the color of the individually illuminated lights.
