Detailed Description
template<class SensorData>
class RTT::dev::SensorInterface< SensorData >
An interface that describes a general sensor You can read a value/structure.
The OutputData is the actual SI unit of the measured data (e.g. force, velocity,...) and is in case of a 1D sensor a double.
If the sensor is not calibrated, the minMeasurement() and maxMeasurement() functions should return std::numeric_limits<SensorData>::min() and std::numeric_limits<SensorData>::max() respectively.
