gluLookAt
gluLookAt: define a viewing transformation.
C Specification
void gluLookAt(
Parameters
eyeX, eyeY, eyeZ Specifies the position of the eye point.
centerX, centerY, centerZ
upX, upY, upZ
Description
gluLookAt creates a viewing matrix derived from an eye point, a reference point
indicating the center of the scene, and an up-vector.
The matrix maps the reference point to the negative Z axis and the eye point to the
origin. When a typical projection matrix is used, the center of the scene therefore maps
to the center of the viewport. Similarly, the direction described by the up-vector projected
onto the viewing plane is mapped to the positive Y axis so that it points upward in the
viewport. The up-vector must not be parallel to the line of sight from the eye point to the
reference point.
Let
F = (centerx - eyex, centery - eyey, centerz- eyez), let up be the vector (upX, upY, upZ),
and then normalize as follows:
f
and
Finally, let s = f
M is then constructed as follows:
