It currently requires custom proprietary software from the
manufacturer, no other software can decode those images yet. As for
the mechanics of how it could be done and how to add support for it,
that would be best discussed on the dev mailing list. However, since
there are currently no publicly available output files from those
cameras, the point is moot.
