I watched something about this on tv. Probably the discovery channel.
1) It uses an electric signal to detect flesh. The blade stops when it comes in contact with flesh because the signal changes, as flesh conducts electricity.
2) Since it monitors the currency of electricity, I would doubt that it has any false alarms, so long as you're using your table saw for for norm (cutting wood).
The blade is only a one time use type of thing, every time it stops to save a hand/body part, you need to replace it and a brake cartridge for for only $69!
