Camera
The Mbox Extreme Environment includes one Camera element. This element performs two main
functions:
• Master Intensity control of Mbox Extreme I/O Module.
Note: The Camera Intensity channel must be greater than 0 to view any output from the Mbox
Extreme I/O Module.
• Modifies the viewpoint of the 3D Objects and Backgrounds.
Camera parameters, such as orbit, dolly, field of view, shutters and keystone correction, can be
controlled in order to fully customize the look of your scenery.
The Camera has the following controllable elements:
• Intensity
• Color
•Orbit X
•Orbit Y
• Dolly - distance of the camera to the Environment.
• Camera Roll and Spin
• Field of View - overall viewing angle of the Environment. This is the equivalent of using different
"virtual camera lenses," such as wide angle, telephoto, etc.
•Pitch
•Yaw
•Two effects
• Mbox Extreme Control Channels
One final thing to note in regards to Camera position is that it is always in set relation to the
Backgrounds. If the Camera position is orbited upwards, then the Backgrounds are orbited downwards
in an equal ratio. This will ensure that the Background elements are always in view.
Control Channels
The Camera Control Channel element controls on-board diagnostic screens and special functions for
the Mbox Extreme Media Server. For more information, see “Control Channels” on page 59.
