How On-Body Detection Works?

It Keeps your device locked if your accelerometer detects that you are not holding it or it's not in your pocket, like on a table somewhere. If you holding your phone it unlocked automatically and you give it to another person, it will still stay unlocked because it won't be able to detect whether you yourself is holding it, only it works when it's being held, pocketed or placed down. 

The device feature was noticed on was a Nexus 4 still running Android 5.0.1, but we're now seeing it on many devices including Nexus flagship.
