Member Function Documentation

Eigen::Vector3f Geno3D::Camera::getOrientation ( )

inline

Get the current 3D orientation of the camera.

See Also: setOrientation(); getPosition(); getSurface()

References orientation.

Eigen::Vector3f Geno3D::Camera::getPosition ( )

inline

Get the current position of the camera in 3D space.

See Also: setPosition(); getOrientation(); getSurface()

References position.

Eigen::Vector3f Geno3D::Camera::getSurface ( )

inline

Get the current configuration of the camera's display surface

See Also: setSurface(); getPosition(); getOrientation()

References displaySurface.

virtual Eigen::Matrix3Xf Geno3D::Camera::project ( const Eigen::Matrix3Xf & points )

pure virtual

Project a set of points in 3D space onto the 2D camera. This should project the points onto the camera's display surface, using a projection algorithm e.g. Perspective or Orthographic projection.

Parameters

points a 3-row matrix holding points in 3D space

See Also: PerspCamera; OrthCamera

Implemented in Geno3D::OrthCamera, and Geno3D::PerspCamera.

void Geno3D::Camera::rotate	(	float	x,
		float	y,
		float	z
	)

overridevirtual

Rotate by Euler angles, in radians.

Parameters

x	the angle to rotate by about the x-axis
y	the angle to rotate by about the y-axis
z	the angle to rotate by about the z-axis

Implements Geno3D::Transformable.

References orientation.

void Geno3D::Camera::scale ( float m )

overridevirtual

Scale the position in 3D space by a factor.

Parameters

m	the factor to scale by

Implements Geno3D::Transformable.

References displaySurface.

void Geno3D::Camera::setOrientation	(	float	x,
		float	y,
		float	z
	)

Set the 3D orientation of the camera.

Parameters

x	the orientation about the x-axis
y	the orientation about the y-axis
z	the orientation about the z-axis

See Also: getOrientation(); setPosition(); setSurface()

References orientation.

void Geno3D::Camera::setPosition	(	float	x,
		float	y,
		float	z
	)

Set the position of the camera in 3D space.

Parameters

x	the position on the x-axis
y	the position on the y-axis
z	the position on the z-axis

See Also: getPosition(); setOrientation(); setSurface()

References position.

void Geno3D::Camera::setSurface	(	float	x,
		float	y,
		float	z
	)

Configure the camera's display surface.

Parameters

x	the x-position of the surface. It is recommended to set this to half the width of the rendering window.
y	the y-position of the surface. It is recommended to set this to half the height of the rendering window.
z	the z-position of the surface. This acts as a scaling factor for the rendered image. It is recommended to set this to around half the height of the rendering window.
