It's more accurate to say "in-house" device rather than "proprietary" one.
I'll fix it.

RAW capture occurs right after the CSI-2 receiver without any image processings.

POST0 and POST1 support the same functions and color spaces.

The hardware supports capturing embdded data, however the software is not fully tested for that feature.

I'll fix it.

The VIIF HW does not support auto-focus.
It supports only auto-exposure and auto-white-balance.
