+UPM is a high level repository for sensors that use mraa. Each sensor links to
+libmraa and are not meant to be interlinked although some groups of sensors may
be. Each sensor contains a header which allows to interface with it. Typically
a sensor is represented as a class and instanciated.
Typically an update() function will be called in order to get new data from the
sensor in order to reduce load when doing multiple reads to sensor data.
-A basic sensor is expected to work as such:
-s = new sensor();
-print(sensor->read());
-sleep(1);
-s->update();
-print(sensor->read();
+### Example

+A sensor/acturo is expected to work as such (here is the servo ES08A api):
+@snippet es08a.cxx Interesting
However implementation and API design is compeltely up to the developer, some
enumerable sensors for example may provide much clever instanciation. Displays
may also create more complex structures in order to interface with them.
