  This program is an example program showing some of the cababilities of the 
  Nano33BLESensor Library. In this case it outputs RMS microphone data and 
  proximity data from two of the Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense's on board 
  sensors via serial in a format that can be displayed on the Arduino IDE 
  serial plotter. It also outputs the data via BLE in a string format that 
  can be viewed using a variety of BLE scanning software.
