ABSTRACT:
An apparatus, a system, and a method are provided for autonomic power adjustment in an electronic device. The apparatus, system, and method include a collector configured to collect indicia of a user's body position in relation to an electronic device for a user who maintains close proximity to the electronic device. A determination module is provided that determines a power state for the electronic device based on the indicia. A power control module selectively adjusts power supplied to subsystems of the electronic device to transition to the determined power state.
