Came across this interesting video on some new Festool patents. Apparently Festool is working on a circular saw that can work without a track. The parent company of Festool took over Shaper Origin not too long ago, and they're looking to use that technology and applying it to their track saws. This means the saw can maintain a precise straight line on its own, even if you move the body a bit.

Wondering how far off an actual working model they are, seems like it will be a lot more difficult to make than the Shaper router.
