== Summary ==
Measures dust concentration in the air using the Sharp GP2Y1010AU0F (and compatible Ks0196 Keyestudio) optical dust sensor.

== Description ==
The **Sharp Optical Dust Sensor GP2Y1010AU0F / Ks0196 Keyestudio** detects dust particles in the air by measuring reflected light inside its chamber.  
It outputs an analog voltage proportional to the dust concentration.  
The sensor uses an internal LED that must be periodically driven (via the digital LED control pin) for proper sampling.  
A configurable voltage reference allows for calibration and improved accuracy.
