Its purpose is to * enable unified interaction with a wide range of sensors and actuators through * a set of defined access functions and a common data structure. * * Each device driver implementing this interface has to expose a set of * predefined functions and it has to register itself to the central SAUL * registry. From here devices can be found, listed, and accessed. * * Each device has further to expose a name and its type. This information can * be used for automated searching and matching of devices (e.g. connect light * sensor automatically with the color of an RGB LED...). * * The SAUL module enables further the automated initialization of preconfigured * actuators/sensor via auto_init and the access to all available devices via * one unified shell command. * * @todo So far, the interface only supports simple read and set * operations. It probably needs to be extended to handling events, * thresholds, and so on. * * @{ * * @file * @brief Definition of the generic [S]ensor [A]ctuator [U]ber [L]ayer * * @author Hauke Petersen */ #ifndef SAUL_H #define SAUL_H #include #include "phydat.h" #ifdef __cplusplus extern "C" { #endif /** * @brief Definition of device classes * * This list contains a collections of available device classes.
