I wonder if an external DIY sensor could be attached to unsupported printers so the signal/standard could be utilized. Maybe for something like the Creality line it would be as simple as a small display indicating detected filament parameters (for the user to input in the config).
There are USB NFC readers. Someone could add support for that to Klipper.
It can. All standard spec NFC: https://specs.openprinttag.org/#/nfc_data_format
So any USB or GPIO reader would work. This will be in Klipper quick I bet.
I'm sure the likes of Bambu will never support this, but lots of other makes likely will. Some will jump all in right away (it is cheap and a useful feature for their customers), others will jump in when forced. Some of the cheap ones will never jump in because that is $.50 they don't want to spend.
I think Bambu have their own solution and since they don't want their users using other brand filament they would be nuts to support an open standard
