Classroom station logout

[Gary Dobbins <dobbins () ND EDU>]

Has anyone found a clever and effective solution to the problem of faculty
leaving classroom lectern systems logged in when they leave?

A simple timeout doesn't cut it, since some may open a slide deck for the
entire period and don't move the mouse, others might actively use the system
right up to the end of the period, then walk away.

Something that "knows when they've left the room" would be ideal, but it
would also have to distinguish against other persons who arrived as the
original user leaves.
