Zusammenfassung:A power tool and method for efficient location tracking is disclosed. The power tool device (102) for location tracking comprises: a motion sensor (252) configured to sense motion; a transceiver (240) configured to wireless communicate; and an electronic controller (210) including a processor (220) and a memory (230), the electronic controller (210) communicatively coupled to the motion sensor (252) and the transceiver (240), and the electronic controller (210) configured to: identify a first location of the power tool device (102) based on the power tool device (102) exiting a tool tracking area (112); measure, via the motion sensor (252), movement of the power tool device (102) relative to the first location; and transmit, via the transceiver (240), power tool device location data based on the movement measured via the motion sensor (252).
