 By default, this library is set to use polynomial coefficients calibrated for the Sharp GP2Y0A60SZLF Analog Distance Sensor 10-150cm 5V, over a range of 50-1500 mm (analog values 30-875). The returned distance is in millimeters (mm) units.  
 
-For different accuracy, range, sensor model or units, different coefficients may be required.  
+The library also allows the use of pre-defined calibrations for different sensor models as well as custom defined polynomial or power fit functions. Examples are provided showing how to use pre-defined calibrations or how to define custom fit functions.
 
 The distance output is filtered using real-time median filtering (sliding window of ajustable size). The MedianFilter class from the following library is used: https://github.com/daPhoosa/MedianFilter.

 This library has been designed so that it is easy to add sensor models. Contributions are therefore welcome. Adding models to the library can be done by either submitting a pull request or providing me the proposed fit function and associated calibration data by email so I can add it myself. Thank you for contributing!
