Could you build this?

No This requires physical ESP32 hardware assembly, wiring sensors, interfacing via SPI/I2C with TFT LCDs and e-paper displays, and low-level embedded C/C++ firmware development.

What it would actually take: Requires hardware breadboarding/soldering, ESP-IDF or Arduino C++ firmware, MQTT broker setup, and handling low-level driver protocols for e-paper refresh waveforms and SPI display controllers. It cannot be vibe-coded purely through software prompts without physical hardware debugging and embedded systems experience.
