+description: >
+ Implement to provide sensor readings. Objects implementing
+ Sensor.Value must be instantiated in the correct
+ hierarchy within the sensors namespace. The following sensor
+ hierarchies are recognized:
+ temperature
+ fan_tach
+ voltage
+ altitude
+
+ Any service implementing Sensor.Value on one or more objects must
+ implement org.freedesktop.DBus.ObjectManager on the sensors namespace root.
+
+ All Sensor.Value properties are read-only.

+ The unit of the reading.
+ For objects in the temperature namespace, Unit must be "DegreesC".
+ For objects in the fan_tach namespace, Unit must be "RPMS".
+ For objects in the voltage namespace, Unit must be "Volts".
+ For objects in the altitude namespace, Unit must be "Meters".
