A proximity detection system is described among devices in a unified communications network. A narrow beam LED and a diffuse beam LED, both located near a first object, such as a computer monitor, provide a light illumination pattern detected by a narrow beam light detector and a broad beam light detector, both located near a second device, such as a headset. A processor calculates the ratio of measured intensity from the narrow beam LED compared to the broad beam LED as measured by the broad beam detector to provide an estimate for how far off axis the second object (e.g., a user of the headset) is with respect to the centerline in front of the second object (e.g., the computer monitor). The processor also calculates the ratio of measured intensity of the narrow IR beam detector to the broad IR beam detector to provide an estimate of the second object's orientation (e.g., the headset user's head) with respect to the first object to determine if the second object is facing the first object.
