Introduction
The SimpleLinkTM Sensor and Actuator Plugin/Sensor Actuator Interface Layer(SAIL) provides portable software modules to individual elements/components like temperature sensor, humidity sensors and other actuators like drives, buttons. The modules will be code compatible across CC2640R2, CC1310, MSP432, CC3220, MSP432E4. It will be modular framework to offer extendable support for sensors and actuators.
NOTE: The names SAIL plugin and SimpleLinkTM Sensor and Actuator Plugin are used interchangeably in most of the documentation
