Most Useful Home Automation Sensor? Building a Bed Occupancy Sensor with Home Assistant

My bed occupancy sensor is one of the key components of my home automation setup and indeed my smart home because it drives so many automations, so today I'll show you how to build it, and how to integrate with Home Assistant or HASSIO to control lights, smart blinds, house alarm or anything you want! However, because it uses MQTT you can use it on any other platform like OpenHAB, Hubitat or Domoticz.
