ESP32-S3 Camera Pan-Tilt Security Tracker: Build a Smart ESP32 Weather Station
I set out to build a pan-tilt security camera with an ESP32-S3 and ended up creating a fully-fledged ESP32 weather station while I was at it. The idea was simple: I wanted to keep an eye on the packages that couriers keep leaving in the rain, but also to know exactly how wet and miserable those packages were getting. Adding a cheap temperature and humidity sensor to the camera mount turned the project into something far more useful—a smart weather station that could see and feel the conditions in my backyard.

Introduction I’ve always been slightly obsessed with knowing the exact temperature of my office. Not the outside weather — I can open a window for that — but the microclimate around my desk, where the Wi‑Fi router and the afternoon sun conspire to turn summer afternoons into a slow roast. A few months ago I threw together a bare DHT11 dangling from my ESP32, just spitting readings to the serial monitor.
