updateCamera (Aero.Animation) - Update camera in animation object

Syntax

updateCamera(h,time)
h.updateCamera(time)

Description

updateCamera(h,time) and h.updateCamera(time) update the camera in the animation object h. time is a scalar in seconds.

Note   The PositionFcn property of a camera object controls the camera position relative to the bodies in the animation. The default camera PositionFcn follows the path of a first order chase vehicle. Therefore, it takes a few steps for the camera to position itself correctly in the chase plane position.

Examples

Configure a body with TimeSeriesSource set to simdata, then update the camera with time t equal to 0.

h = Aero.Animation;
h.FramesPerSecond = 10;
h.TimeScaling = 5;
idx1 = h.createBody('pa24-250_orange.ac','Ac3d');
load simdata;
h.Bodies{1}.TimeSeriesSource = simdata;
t = 0;
h.updateCamera(t);
