Abstract
A method may include enabling operation of a time of flight (TOF) proximity sensor at an information handling system and initializing execution of a software service. The method may further include receiving, at the software service, an alert signal from the TOF proximity sensor indicating movement proximate to the information handling system. In response to receiving the alert signal, a camera at the information handling system may be configured to capture an image. The image may be analyzed by a vision system coupled to the camera to determine a gaze direction of a user at the information handling system. Operation of the information handling system may be configured based on the gaze direction.
