function switchMode

cpp

void switchMode(
    CameraMode newMode
)

function update

cpp

virtual void update() override

Recalculates the view and projection matrices based on the internal camera state.

Reimplements: Vp::AbstractCamera::update

Generally this method should build up a new view matrix from scratch using some arbitrary internal variables. From the calculated view matrix, direction, up, right and position information should be updated.

function viewpoint

cpp

virtual void viewpoint(
    AbstractCamera::Viewpoint viewpoint
) override

Moves the camera to the specified viewpoint.

Parameters:

viewpoint

Reimplements: Vp::AbstractCamera::viewpoint

Subclasses need to provide their own implementations.
