INDICATION DEVICE, METHOD FOR PRODUCING INDICATON DEVICE, AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE WITH THE INDICATION DEVICE
First Claim
1. An indication device for indicating status of a task being executed of an electronic device, the indication device comprising:
- a substrate, which is transparent or semi-transparent;
a printed image printed on a surface of the substrate, the printed image comprising a first sub-image with a first color and a second sub-image with a second color; and
a backlight source setting on an opposite second surface of the substrate and capable of emit light of different colors;
wherein, when the backlight source emits light with a color different from the first color of the first sub-image and the second color of the second sub-image, the whole printed image is visible and indicates a first status of the task being executed, when the backlight source emits light of the same color as the second color of the second sub-image, only the first sub-image is visible, the printed image indicates a second status of the task being executed.

Abstract
An indication device includes a substrate, a printed image, and a backlight source. The substrate is transparent or semi-transparent. The printed image is printed on a surface of the substrate and includes a first sub-image with a first color and a second sub-image with a second color. The backlight source setting on an opposite second surface of the substrate and capable of emit different color light. When the backlight source emits light with color different from both of the first color and the second color, the whole printed image is visible and indicates a first status of the task being executed. When the backlight source emits light with the same color as the second color, only the first sub-image is visible, the printed image indicates a second status of the task being executed.
