The C8CKIT-048 Analog Coprocessor Kit has some means to detect a piece of metal. I would suggest you to install the kit only files to have access to examples, descriptions and schematics.

What sort of metal and at what sample speed would you like to see it?  We are working on some new stuff that will come out in a few months.  The CY8CKIT-048 as Bob mentioned has a basic inductive sensing circuit.  All I can say is the capability to do this even better is coming soon.  So let us know what you'd like to see.  -J
