+``V4L2_CID_UNIT_CELL_SIZE (struct)``
+ This control returns the unit cell size in nanometers. The struct
+ :c:type:`v4l2_area` provides the width and the height in separate
+ fields to take into consideration asymmetric pixels.
+ This control does not take into consideration any possible hardware
+ binning.
+ The unit cell consists of the whole area of the pixel, sensitive and
+ non-sensitive.
+ This control is required for automatic calibration of sensors/cameras.
