/*!
    \class QIRProximityReading
    \ingroup sensors_reading
    \inmodule QtSensors

    \brief The QIRProximityReading class holds readings from the IR proximity sensor.

    The IR (infra-red) proximity sensor detects proximity by beaming out infra-red light
    and detecting how much of the light returns.

    The biggest limitation of this technology is that there is no reliable way to turn the
    reflectance values into distances unless both the item being detected and the ambient
    conditions are known.

    \section2 QIRProximityReading Units

    The sensor reports reflectance as a decimal fraction in the range of 0 - 1. That is, 0 indicates
    nothing was detected within the range of the sensor and 1 indicates the infra-red signal
    returned at the full power level that it was sent at.

    With some IR sensors, it is quite uncommon to reach the top and the bottom of the
    value range, and some parts of the range ends might not be obtainable at all. This is due to the
    behavior of the sensor hardware. With these sensors, the absolute value of reflectance should never
    be used directly. Instead, applications should react to the relative change of the reading values. Use
    QProximitySensor if it is only necessary to check if something is close to the device or not.
*/
