SMART TOOL SYSTEM, DEVICES, AND METHODS
First Claim
1. A tool monitoring device, the tool monitoring device comprising:
- a housing configured to couple with an exterior surface of a tool;
one or more sensors positioned within the housing and configured to measure one or more properties of the tool over a period of time;
a communication interface configured to transmit data from the tool monitoring device to one or more external devices, the transmitted data being generated based at least in part on the measured one or more properties of the tool over the period of time; and
a power source configured to provide power to the one or more sensors and the communication interface.

14. A method executed by one or more computing devices for performing a diagnostic assessment based on one or more properties of a tool over a period of time, the method comprising:
-
receiving, by at least one of the one or more computing devices, data from a tool monitoring device coupled to the tool, the received data being generated based at least in part on measurements of one or more properties of the tool captured over the period of time by one or more sensors of the tool monitoring device; generating, by at least one of the one or more computing devices, one or more data signatures based at least in part on the one or more measured properties; comparing, by at least one of the one or more computing devices, at least one generated data signature in the one or more generated data signatures to one or more stored data signatures corresponding to one or more diagnostic outcomes; and generating, by at least one of the one or more computing devices, a diagnostic assessment based at least in part on the comparison. - View Dependent Claims (15)

16. An apparatus for performing a diagnostic assessment based on one or more properties of a tool over a period of time, the apparatus comprising:
-
one or more processors; and one or more memories operatively coupled to at least one of the one or more processors and having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by at least one of the one or more processors, cause at least one of the one or more processors to; receive data from a tool monitoring device coupled to the tool, the received data being generated based at least in part on measurements of one or more properties of the tool captured over the period of time by one or more sensors of the tool monitoring device; generate one or more data signatures based at least in part on the one or more measured properties; compare at least one generated data signature in the one or more generated data signatures to one or more stored data signatures corresponding to one or more diagnostic outcomes; and generate a diagnostic assessment based at least in part on the comparison. - View Dependent Claims (17)

18. At least one non-transitory computer-readable medium for performing a diagnostic assessment based on one or more properties of a tool over a period of time, the at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising:
-
receive data from a tool monitoring device coupled to the tool, the received data being generated based at least in part on measurements of one or more properties of the tool captured over the period of time by one or more sensors of the tool monitoring device; generate one or more data signatures based at least in part on the one or more measured properties; compare at least one generated data signature in the one or more generated data signatures to one or more stored data signatures corresponding to one or more diagnostic outcomes; and generate a diagnostic assessment based at least in part on the comparison. - View Dependent Claims (19)
