Automate Your Smart Home With This Easy Bed Sensor

Описание: My bed sensor is one of my favourites as it opens the door for many new smart home automations and a while back I made a video showing how to make one yourself using cheap loads cells which basically turns your bed into a big set of scales. However, that solution isn't always plausible for some people without the necessary equipment and completely depends on your bed frame. So...instead of measuring weight, why don't we try measuring pressure?
