It's for a sensor to tell if the case has been opened. I've only really ever heard of it being used in business computers.

I was looking around in my BiOS yesterday, and I saw a thing in BiOS that said "Case Open". What does this mean?

Literally means is the computer case (chassis) currently open and usually refers to the side panel specifically. It's like a warning you get on cars when the hood is not properly closed. Most OEM computers have that setting in their BIOS.

You also need to have suitable for case for it to be useful. So among those things to just ignore in BIOS.
