Monitoring air quality in our living spaces is becoming increasingly important, especially in times when environmental awareness and health play a central role. In this blog post, we will take a look at integrating a PMS5003T fine dust sensor with an ESP32 microcontroller. We will use the ESPHome framework for programming and the Home Assistant platform for displaying and monitoring the data. Additionally, a custom-designed enclosure will be used, which was designed with FreeCAD and manufactured using a 3D printer.
