The present invention is a portable and rechargeable drill system that allows a user to conveniently carry on the user's body and perform work. As a preferred and non-limiting example, the portable and rechargeable drill system is lightweight and is comprised of a drill handpiece, a battery-powered control device, and a securing member or mechanism for the drill handpiece. The drill system may further comprise a control device case or holder. The drill handpiece preferably comprises a first end, a second end, a drill bit-spindle and housing assembly, a drill bit locking mechanism, a motor and housing assembly, and a power cord.

Described herein are a system and methods for implementing a tool-agnostic device. In examples, the system may determine location and state information using sensors of the tool-agnostic device. Based on this information, the system may communicate with a virtual reality system for display and user interaction with a virtual reality environment. The tool-agnostic device may be removed and re-attached to a number of different tools. The tool-agnostic device allows tracking of a number of different tools without customization or retrofitting each tool. The tool-agnostic device may serve as a safety-shutoff device in addition to tracking tool use and movement. When the system determines that a tool is operating in an unsafe manner the tool-agnostic device may interrupt the power to the tool.

A changer device for inserting a clamping head into and/or removing the clamping head from the clamping chuck, wherein the clamping head has a plurality of clamping jaws mutually displaceable in a radial direction and which can be mutually subjected to force by the changer device toward or away from one another in the radial direction.

The changer device has a base and a plurality of adjusting elements which are movably attached to the base and which in each case have at least one engagement portion for the application of force onto the clamping jaws.

The changer device has a drive member which is rotatably movable about a central axis relative to the base. The drive member is coupled by a gear mechanism to the adjusting elements such that by a rotational movement of the drive member the adjusting elements can be jointly moved toward one another or away from one another.
