Any updates on Bambu Lab’s promised "model left on plate" detection?

Hey everyone,

I came across a statement from Bambu Lab in an article dated August 18, 2023, and I’m wondering if anyone has seen any updates or heard anything more recent about it.

The article mentioned that Bambu Lab printers equipped with LIDAR (specifically the X1 Series) would receive a firmware feature that allows the printer to check if previously printed models were left on the plate.

Also, I noticed that the new printer (H2D) comes with a 2 TOPS neural processor—same as the X1C—and it’s capable of performing this check. So it seems technically feasible. Would be awesome to see this pushed to the X1C soon.

On a related note, has anyone heard anything about Bambu Lab planning to unify the UI/UX across their lineup? The X1C interface has a different style and color scheme compared to the newer models. Any chance they’ll update the older ones to match?

Curious to hear what the community knows!
