Abstract

A system includes a power tool and an automatic safety system communicatively coupled to the power tool. The automatic safety system includes one or more sensors disposed about the power tool, where the one or more sensors are configured to gather data about a safety parameter related to an operation of the power tool. The automatic safety system also includes a main detector configured to receive the data gathered by the one or more sensors. The main detector is configured to analyze the received data to determine whether to unlock the power tool for operation.
