Intel is preparing to update the PC platform (unclear if mobile or desktop although likely mobile); with the ability for a PC to adapt to its surroundings. This would mean adjusting the brightness on-the-fly based on ambient light (a feature that's existed on mobile phones for 20 years now); but also to detect the presence of a user in its vicinity. The company didn't detail how it goes about this, but technologies already exist to combine visual input from the PC's cameras; radio from the PC's antennas, audio from its mic array; to form a picture of its surroundings.

Intel's next-gen PC platforms could introduce hardware called the Visual Sensing Controller (codenamed "Clover Falls,") a device that serves as a "companion module" to the processor, giving it additional AI capabilities. The chip will serve a dual purpose as a security module, using visual inputs to detect user-presence. This possibly builds on Windows Hello, but now has certain additional capabilities (you probably won't need to sit still and put on your poker face).

Congratulations, the newest advance in surveillance that came over a decade ago. It has been lots of years of google and microsoft magically knowing your habits and offering tailored commercials. At this point who gets surprised anymore?
 
Apple will make a version and call it iRobot

I don't think they need do to be honest, their products are already literally scanning your face and surroundings 24/7.
