You mean in response to pressure changes during print? I’m not sure but that would be nice!

I do have two BLTouch printers and lots of Prusas with the PINDA inductive sensor. What excites me about direct nozzle force sensing is that it eliminates the need to calibrate z height offset between the sensor and the nozzle. I don’t know if Bambu’s bed sensor is as good as Prusa’s nozzle sensor but anything that eliminates the mechanical stack up between nozzle and sensor is an improvement IMO.

Though I do realize much of my gripes come from the fact that the PINDA mount on the Prusa Mk3s is kinda weak and I’ve had several fail, requiring an annoying service job.

Yes, exactly! I'm very excited by it, if it works well, it'll be a revolution. Any other sensor that measures the bed is strictly worse, because it only does so once, rather than continuously. The Beacon does look pretty great, though.
