Abstract
One embodiment provides a method, including: receiving, at an information handling device, an incoming communication; accessing, using a processor, context data associated with a user, wherein the context data corresponds to at least one active application; determining, using the context data, a work status of the user; and providing, responsive to the incoming communication, a status message associated with the determined work status. Other aspects are described and claimed.
Claims4
A method, comprising:
- receiving, at an information handling device, an incoming communication;
- identifying, using a processor a user's position within an active document, wherein the active document is identified using at least one sensor selected from at least one of a camera and a microphone;
- determining, based upon the user's position within the active document and upon inputs received by the at least one sensor, a work status of the user, wherein the determining comprises:
- identifying that the work status is a not busy work status responsive to identifying that the user's position is at the beginning of the active document;
- and
- providing a response to the incoming communication, wherein the response includes a description of the work status comprising an indication of the position within the active document.
An information handling device, comprising:
- at least one camera;
- a processor;
- a memory device that stores instructions executable by the processor to:
- receive an incoming communication;
- identify, using the processor the at least one camera, a user's position within an active document, wherein the active document is identified using at least one sensor selected from at least one of a camera and a microphone;
- determine, based upon the user's position within the active document and upon inputs received by the at least one sensor, a work status of the user, wherein the instructions executable by the processor to determine comprise instructions executable by the processor to:
- identify that the work status is a not busy work status responsive to identifying that the user's position is at the beginning of the active document;
- and
- provide a response to the incoming communication, wherein the response includes a description of the work status and comprises an indication of the position within the active document.
A product, comprising:
- a storage device that stores code, the code being executable by a processor and comprising:
- code that receives an incoming communication;
- code that identifies a user's position within an active document, wherein the active document is identified using at least one sensor selected from at least one of a camera and a microphone;
- code that determines, based upon the user's position within the active document and upon inputs received by the at least one sensor, a work status of the user, wherein the code that determines comprises code that:
- identifies that the work status is a not busy work status responsive to identifying that the position is at the beginning of the active document;
- and
- code that provides a response to the incoming communication, wherein the response includes a description of the work status comprising an indication of the position within the active document.
