+``V4L2_CID_UNIT_CELL_SIZE (struct)``
+    This control returns the unit cell size in nanometres. The struct provides
+    the width and the height in separated fields to take into consideration
+    asymmetric pixels and/or hardware binning.
+    The unit cell consist on the whole area of the pixel, sensitive and
+    non-sensitive.
+    This control is required for automatic calibration sensors/cameras.

    This control may be changed to a menu control in the future, if more
    options are required.
