An infrastructure for a platform immersive experience is described. An example of an apparatus includes a microcontroller to receive control parameters for platform lighting options for a computing system and information regarding current system conditions for the computing system, and generate control instructions for a lighting pattern for a set of lights based at least in part on the control parameters and the information regarding current system conditions; and host control circuitry to receive the control instructions for the lighting pattern from the microcontroller, and provide control signals to control the set of lights.
