iAway - Your Away Manager

iAway utilizes computer vision to detect in smarter ways when you are physically away from your Mac. iAway can start your Screen Saver, activate sleep mode or run Apple Script when you are away and when you return. The App also comes with a location awareness feature, so you can choose to only trigger away actions at, or everywhere but, a certain location (e.g. use a screen saver only at the office).

AVOID "SCREEN SAVER ACCIDENTS" DURING MEETINGS
While users always have been able to manually set a time limit for when their Macs start a screen saver or sleep based on halted physical interaction, iAway takes things a step further, improving the accuracy by adding motion and optional face detection. This is especially useful in corporate environments where a screen needs to be locked within minutes of inactivity.
