+/* This function is currently only working for the Sharp GP2Y0A02YK0F sensor
+ * which measures from around 20cm to 150cm. To adapt this to other Sharp IR
+ * sensors, you have to calculate the variables reg and exp.
+ *
+ * To quickly calculate reg and exp, use microsoft excel to plot the graph
+ * provided in the datasheet. You should create a scatterplot (except that
+ * the y-axis is [cm], and x-axis is [V]).
+ *
+ * When you get the values, right click the line in the graph and select
+ * "Add Trendline". Select "power". Also, in the trendline options, check
+ * that you want to see the function. It will then be printed in your
+ * scatterplot.
+ *
+ * This is the function: Reg*x^exp.
+ *
+ *
+ * Example:
+ *
+ * SHARPIR sensor(p20);
+ * sensor.calibrate(57.373, 1.3166, 0.45, 2.5);
+ * while(1){
+ * serial.printf("cm: %f ", sensor.cm());
+ * wait_ms(50);
+ * }
+ *
+ * You can also use this method to manually plot values you've measured with
+ * the "volt" function, which in the end should give a result similar to the
+ * values provided below.
+ *
+ * Feel free to contact me with improvements for the source code, and
+ * especially for values that would work for other sensors.
