+Driver-specific V4L2 controls
+-----------------------------
+
+The uvcvideo driver implements the following UVC-specific controls:
+
+``V4L2_CID_UVC_REGION_OF_INTEREST_RECT (struct)``
+ This control determines the region of interest (ROI). ROI is a
+ rectangular area represented by a struct :c:type:`v4l2_rect`. The
+ rectangle is in global sensor coordinates using pixel units. It is
+ independent of the field of view, not impacted by any cropping or
+ scaling.
+
+ Use ``V4L2_CTRL_WHICH_MIN_VAL`` and ``V4L2_CTRL_WHICH_MAX_VAL`` to query
+ the range of rectangle sizes.
+
+ Setting a ROI allows the camera to optimize the capture for the region.
+ The value of ``V4L2_CID_REGION_OF_INTEREST_AUTO`` control determines
+ the detailed behavior.
+
+ An example of use of this control, can be found in the:
+ `Chrome OS USB camera HAL.
+ <https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/platform2/+/refs/heads/release-R121-15699.B/camera/hal/usb/>`
+
+
+``V4L2_CID_UVC_REGION_OF_INTEREST_AUTO (bitmask)``
+ This determines which, if any, on-board features should track to the
+ Region of Interest specified by the current value of
+ ``V4L2_CID_UVD__REGION_OF_INTEREST_RECT``.
+
+ Max value is a mask indicating all supported Auto Controls.

+ - Setting this bit enables automatically capture the specified region
+ with higher quality if possible.
