POWER TOOL WITH CAPACITIVE INJURY MITIGATION SYSTEM

摘要

In one embodiment, a power tool includes a cutting assembly, a sensor system proximate to the cutting assembly, a reaction system operably connected to the cutting assembly, a memory, program instructions stored within the memory, a spatial recognition algorithm stored within the memory, and a processor operably connected to the reaction system, the sensor system, and the memory. The processor is configured to execute the program instructions to detect a human profile within a detection zone associated with the cutting assembly, establish a location of the human profile within the detection zone based upon the detection using the spatial recognition algorithm, determine that an unsafe condition exists based upon the established location, and activate the reaction system.
