in the original episode the panel went black because the crew interrupted its power. So the original clip has the reflection of Data beating on a uniform black surface.
They used a process called chromakey, in which the computer replaces a specific color with another video. They set the key color to the black of the panel.
Same technology used for the weather map on the evening news (except that's a blue or green chromakey).
