It's called Active Display. You can find copycat apps in Play, but they are more often than not poor facsimiles. Which AC article is that?

Edit: found the article.

After lollipop there's a new setting called "ambient display". You can check it out.

This feature is great for phones with an AMOLED display (Moto X) because a black pixel is a not activated pixel. But with LCD screens (Moto G or E) is going to eat a lot of battery. These phones have a backlight and, battery wise, it doesn't matter much if you have black pixels or not.

The feature you mentioned doesn't dislpay notifications in the way it is displayed in the pic
