+Intel D4xx UVC Cameras Metadata
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+Intel D4xx (D435 and other) cameras include per-frame metadata in their UVC
+payload headers, following the Microsoft(R) UVC extension proposal [1_]. That
+means, that the private D4XX metadata, following the standard UVC header, is
+organised in blocks. D4XX cameras implement several standard block types,
+proposed by Microsoft, and several proprietary ones. Supported standard metadata
+types are MetadataId_CaptureStats (ID 3), MetadataId_CameraExtrinsics (ID 4),
+and MetadataId_CameraIntrinsics (ID 5). For their description see [1_]. This
+document describes proprietary metadata types, used by D4xx cameras.
+
+V4L2_META_FMT_D4XX buffers follow the metadata buffer layout of
+V4L2_META_FMT_UVC with the only difference, that it also includes proprietary
+payload header data. D4xx cameras use bulk transfers and only send one payload
+per frame, therefore their headers cannot be larger than 255 bytes.
+
+Below are proprietary Microsoft style metadata types, used by D4xx cameras,
+where all fields are in little endian order:
