Genius - even though the router is made by Dewalt, I hope it's patent protected and licensed by MIT so we can start seeing this in Home Depot / Lowes without one company owning the rights.
Of course, my question is answered by this: "A consumer version of the position-correcting router is being developed, to be released by a forthcoming startup." - No doubt the same people in this video, technology licensed from MIT. Company to be acquired by Dewalt within 24 mos. after commercialization.
Not really within the remit of Dewalt, whose branding is "big manly construction equipment", and this is more of a fine-woodworking/hobbyist product. (The pros will still use their big CNC table routers, which don't require human intervention, and can cut much much faster) Maybe Dremel?

Dewalt is basically the prosumer brand of Black & Decker (which owns Dewalt)
