You can get pretty good proximity detection using the built in IR port
to send (arbitrary) messages out and simultaneously sampling with the
stock light sensor to pick up IR returns.  Proximity detection out to
about 10 inches is possible.

Search the lugnet discussion under the topics:  IR Detection or IR
Proximity detection for the relevant threads.

Or let me know if you want some sample NQC code to play with.
