##  The Future of 3D printer Bed Leveling

[BDsensor](https://www.pandapi3d.com/bdsensor) is the first eddy bed level sensor that can work with 3D printer since 2022 and do fast bed leveling and adjust z axis in real time.
it can measure the bed distance at any point in real time without moving the z axis up and down.

Faster leveling, realtime compensation, high accuracy.

### Hardware:
* Shielded Coil
* Work with any GPIO pins(softI2C)
* The lightest and samllest eddy probe, 1.5g:
* Support high temperature chamber(120C) with the long cable probe [BDsensorM](https://github.com/markniu/Bed_Distance_sensor/wiki/BDsensor-M).

### Benefit of Collision sensing
1.  **Auto z offset calibration**.
2.  **Overcome the temperature drift**.
     The temperature drift will only change the z_offset, it will rise or low the whole bed mesh, but does not change the bed mesh with this BDsensor. that means the bed mesh is the same even with [different temperature](https://www.pandapi3d.com/post/nozzle-collision-sensing-with-bdsensor).
3. Repeatability: **+/-0.005mm**
4. No external hardware and easy to adjust

### What is the difference between VB and VM?
The VB and VM (BDsensorM) share the same electronic design and firmware, so their functions and performance are essentially the same.
* VB: The coil and electronics are installed on the toolhead.
* VM: Only the lightweight 1.5 g coil is installed on the toolhead, while the PCB is mounted away from it, making the VM more suitable for high-temperature chambers up to [120C](https://github.com/markniu/Bed_Distance_sensor/wiki/BDsensor-M).
