Abstract

This invention generally relates to control systems, and to related methods and computer program code, for controlling a power tool, in particular a portable power tool. Aspects of the invention also include a cutting tool adapted for use with the system and a controller for use with the system. The techniques we describe have applications in biomedical and do-it-yourself (DIY) fields among others. A control system for a portable power tool (10), said power tool including a motor configured to drive a cutting tool (11), the control system comprising: a cutting tool (11) for said power tool (10), said cutting tool (11) having a sensor to sense a characteristic of an environment local to said cutting tool; a signal communications system to communicate a signal from said sensor to a controller (13); and a controller configured to output a control signal for controlling said power tool (10) responsive to said signal from said sensor.
