Proximity sensor threshold calibration application.

This application illustrates the use of the sensor_calibrate() function to set the proximity detection thresholds in a 3-channel proximity sensor. This threshold is the level at which the sensor will report that an object is near the device.

The calibration sequence requires three steps, one for each channel. During each step, an object is placed at the desired distance in front of the sensor, and the user presses the button on the board to trigger a proximity reading.

After Step 3 is completed, the threshold values for the sensor are calculated and are written to non-volatile (flash) memory on the microcontroller. These values will continue to be used for future proximity readings, unless they are overwritten by an application calling the sensor_set_threshold function for the proximity sensor channel(s).
