Bed Occupancy Sensor? (lemmy.ml)

Anyone try to build a bed occupancy sensor integrated with Home Assistant? I've looked into load sensors but all of them seem to have pretty small weight limits (low enough to where I don't think it would even support the empty bed).

What devices/sensors have you used for this? And what does your setup look like?

I don’t have one myself, but several of the guys on YouTube use them. See “The Home Automation Guy” or “Smart Home Solver“. I can’t remember the brand they use.
