Run
Upload the sketch, and open the Serial Monitor. You should see a message
stating that initialization is complete.
Start with your hand off to one side (a "side" being the one of the infrared
LEDs with the brass covers) about 4 to 10 inches (10 to 25 cm) above the
sensor. Swipe your hand horizontally across the sensor so that your hand
passes over the one infrared LED and then the next infrared LED.
