AzFramework::Camera Struct Reference

#include <CameraInput.h>

Public Member Functions
AZ::Transform	View () const
	View camera transform (V in model-view-projection matrix (MVP)).
AZ::Transform	Transform () const
	World camera transform.
AZ::Matrix3x3	Rotation () const
	World rotation.
AZ::Vector3	Translation () const
	World translation.

Public Attributes
AZ::Vector3	m_pivot = AZ::Vector3::CreateZero()
	Pivot point to rotate about (modified in world space).
AZ::Vector3	m_offset = AZ::Vector3::CreateZero()
	Offset relative to pivot (modified in camera space).
float	m_yaw = 0.0f
	Yaw rotation of camera (stored in radians) usually clamped to 0-360 degrees (0-2Pi radians).
float	m_pitch = 0.0f
	Pitch rotation of the camera (stored in radians) usually clamped to +/-90 degrees (-Pi/2 - Pi/2 radians).

Detailed Description

A simple camera representation using spherical coordinates as input (pitch, yaw, pivot and offset). The camera's transform and view can be obtained through accessor functions that use the internal spherical coordinates to calculate the position and orientation.

Note

Modifying m_pivot directly and leaving m_offset as zero will produce a free look camera effect, giving m_offset a value (e.g. in negative Y only) will produce an orbit camera effect, modifying X and Z of m_offset will further alter the camera translation in relation to m_pivot so it appears off center.
