Edging day by day. Ballooning really.
Not familiar with these terms. What do they mean?
What if it’s not doing full image processing but just a smaller number of pixels, like my mouse does. If it had the temporal resolution of a gaming mouse, would that be fast enough?
I would be very surprised since the X1e increased by $400 instantly after tariffs were announced. I was very annoyed as I am building a print farm and the price was $2499 now $2899. I was able to find it for $2699 but still that is a big jump in one day.
I would guess auto calibration and checking for first layer accuracy as well as spaghetti effects. The lidar does this on the X1e for sure. But all of this is a guess until the 25th!
That’s up to the dealer, not Bambu.
I would think so, internally those are 1000’s of hz.

On the X1C, and so presumably the X1E as well, I thought the lidar was checking whether the first layer went down as expected, but that for subsequent checking of spaghetti it was the internal view camera. Or am I wrong about that?
On the other hand, the H2D camera (one of them anyway) seems hoisted up higher, so if the one shown reading the fiducial markers in the tease photo is lidar, maybe it would also help check for spaghetti? X1C spaghetti detection works well enough that I use it, but it could certainly be better at reacting faster.

You are entirely correct. The Lidar is not used for spaghetti detection. That is done through.the chamber camera.
Note that it is not able to detect just any kind of noodle. Trials with a pack of unboiled spaghetti in the forum were unfortunately unsuccessful.
I did manage to trigger the pasta warning at medium sensitivity with a chunk of unboiled Mien pasta though 
As for the fine pattern, this would give the H2D an independent measurement in XY and therefore something the Bambu’s are currently lacking: XY calibration => Industrial-grade accuracy.

The build plate as something like an encoder to do a better positioning of the print head. Like for a mouse. Does not seem so clever as the build plate get printed on and residues may stick there. I have my doubts.
This System is allready used by the Shaper Origin…Min 6:20Min
The tape tells the position…now change tabe against lasered QR-Code an a “new” Printer feature is born… i mean copied
fuggg…my link was not good…so try this

Shaper Origin looks very nice, did not know something like this exists. It is amazing.
We will see how Bambu adapted maybe similar(same) to a 3D printer.
I had to take a whole 2 3xtra seconds to guess whats wrong with braile on the bed plate? Im using a cool plate
Incredible joke tho. Up there with snow tires and aspirin bottles!

Uh yeah also the build plate is rarly put back at the same position. Wait so is this thing gonna have a laser engraver or cutter? I asked bambu to add a small 1 or 2 axis robot clamper arm to make it into like a claw game but with cnc precision ro remove parts with a twist off the bed automatucally because with the supertrack its stuck so hard it ruins any work flow…makes you pause to do painful work for 5 minutes and its annoying. And auto scraping of bed will just break parts on superuor supertrack. Parts mist be grabbed, and twisted by robot arm that can simply be places on the dam toolhead. Is a small robot arm asking too much? Its a 3d printer it literally makes whole objects but i cant have a lil robot claw clamper?
Weird because my a1/a1mini have never needed any calibration after first one. And i bet that one wasnt even necisary. These rhings already work perfectly so will this have a laser for cutting or just engraving?
Because yeah lil laser engraver could do a lot but nothing y cant just print. I wish it had a toolhead for cutting and was an actual cnc too lol
These bambu printers are already perfect with the coolplate super track. My a1 took a whole yeat before finally the lil plastic nub on the wiper broke (bad design, if it was a screw or bolt woulda lasted forever but early a1 wiper was just bad design and they already inproved it in a1 mini which is compatible…so i already ordered a 6 dollar replacenent which is SO cheap for a spare part… from bambu using a dang makerworld gift card so all free…
man ive gotten enuf giftcarfs to get TWO a1 minis after my a1. Bambu is the BEST corporate experience ive had since nintendo as a child maybe. I hear bambu was started by some dji people so i wanna try a dji product next lol. I wish every company had products as good as bambu and that gave me as much opportunity to earn giftcards…
im also a walking talking bambu ad here in san diego as in always giving out dummy13s and n64 keychains to everyone at every store i go to, post office ups etc i always give iut 3d printed stuff and i think ive sold like 5 banbu a1 minis by now lol i wisg they hqd a referql program so i coukd saveup eveb more points on makerworld for this new printer lol
Me too, would sort of make sense if you were cutting or engraving something laid on the bed.
I don’t see why it would need to be.
Just needs to not move once the print starts.
I hope they add some of these addons for the x1c to make it print even more precisely
