Figure 4.33: (a) The (conceptual) OpenGL camera's default pose (b) A (conceptual)point camera at the origin with film on the viewing plane of the frustum.

Figure 4.34: Camera pose determined by gluLookAt(eyex, eyey, eyez, centerx,centery, centerz, upx, upy, upz).

Figure 4.35: (a) gluLookAt(): the broken frustum is the original viewing frustum, theunbroken one is where it's translated by the gluLookAt() call, the box doesn't move. (b)glTranslatef(): the viewing frustum doesn't move, rather the box is translated by theglTranslatef() call.

Figure 4.36: Sectional diagrams of the (simulated) conguration of the eye and frustumfor various gluLookAt() calls in boxWithLookAt.cpp.

Figure 4.37: Screenshots from Experiment 4.28.

Figure 4.38: Taking thedot product:u·v = |u||v|cos θ .

Figure 4.39: (a)Splitting v intocomponents v1 and v2,parallel and perpendicularto u, respectively (b) v2 asthe “shadow” of v on aplane p perpendicular to u.

Figure 4.40: The camera is seen face-forward so that its back-plane p lies on the page.The line of sight los comes perpendicularly up from the page toward the reader. Thecomponents of the vector up, parallel and perpendicular to los, respectively, are up1 andup2 (the latter lying on the page).

Figure 4.47: Screenshotfrom Experiment 4.30.

Figure 4.48: Viewing transformation equivalent to a sequence of modelingtransformations.

Figure 4.49: Applying a translation (1) and rotations (2)-(4) about the threecoordinate axes to bring the camera back to its default pose. The original line of sight isbold. The up direction is shown only at the end.

Figure 4.50: Solution to Example 4.6: the configuration of the camera given bygluLookAt(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 1.0, 0.0, -1.0, 1.0, 0.0) is at left; the line ofsight and up vectors are indicated by blue arrows; rotations are both annotated at thetop and indicated in the figures themselves by broken arrows, the result of each rotationbeing the next configuration.
