 The UPM repository provides software drivers for a wide variety of commonly
 used sensors and actuators. These software drivers interact with the
 underlying hardware platform (or microcontroller), as well as with the attached
-sensors, through calls to [MRAA](github.com/intel-iot-devkit/mraa) APIs.
