Creating a squirrel house in our back garden that would be equipped with an ESP32, a camera, motion sensor, solar power, and would integrate with my Home Assistant OS, all using as many off-the-shelf components as possible. I also opted to design and build a custom housing from scratch.
🛠️ A little bit of everything here; CAD design, 3D printing, laser cutting, ESP32 software, Home Assistant OS integration, solar power, + more
