Apparatus, system, and method for a stowage bin lighting interface

Abstract:

Example implementations relate to stowage bin lighting interfaces. An example apparatus includes a panel portion, and a set of fasteners configured to couple the panel portion to a stowage bin such that a curvature of the panel portion aligns with a curvature of the exterior of the stowage bin. Each fastener is configured to extend through the stowage bin into a back portion of the panel portion to couple the panel portion to the stowage bin. Aligning the curvature of the panel portion with the curvature of the exterior of the stowage bin enables the stowage bin to open and close when the panel portion is coupled. The apparatus further includes a lighting interface configured to couple between the panel portion and the exterior of the stowage bin at a position that enables the lighting interface to provide illumination through openings in the panel portion and ambient lighting.
