## Detailed Description

The SoReversePerspectiveCamera class defines a camera node with reverse perspective rendering.

For realistic looking 3D scene, the geometry should be rendered with perspective calculations. Use this camera type to accomplish this.

Reverse perspective rendering, a special case of perspective rendering, is where the projection rays do not converge in the eye of the observer, but instead at a point behind the scene. Thus objects farther away from the observer appear larger than closer objects. A reverse perspective projection is defined by

- setting the perspective camera position to the projection point behind the scene
- setting near / far distance to negative values
- rotating the camera orientation by 180 degrees around the camera Z-axis to compensate the image flip induced by the negative near / far values.

The view volume of the default reverse perspective camera is defined as shown below.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## SoReversePerspectiveCamera()

SoReversePerspectiveCamera::SoReversePerspectiveCamera | ( | void |  | ) |

Constructor.

## ~SoReversePerspectiveCamera()

SoReversePerspectiveCamera::~SoReversePerspectiveCamera | ( |  | ) |

protected virtual

Destructor.

## Member Function Documentation

## getClassTypeId()

SoType SoReversePerspectiveCamera::getClassTypeId | ( | void |  | ) |

static

This static method returns the SoType object associated with objects of this class.

## getTypeId()

SoType SoReversePerspectiveCamera::getTypeId | ( | void |  | ) | const

virtual

Returns the type identification of an object derived from a class inheriting SoBase. This is used for runtime type checking and "downward" casting.

Reimplemented from SoPerspectiveCamera.

## getFieldDataPtr()

const SoFieldData ** SoReversePerspectiveCamera::getFieldDataPtr | ( | void |  | ) |

static protected

This API member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be of interest to the application programmer.
Returns the SoFieldData class which holds information about fields in this node.

## getFieldData()

const SoFieldData * SoReversePerspectiveCamera::getFieldData | ( | void |  | ) | const

protected virtual

Returns a pointer to the class-wide field data storage object for this instance. If no fields are present, returns `NULL`.

Reimplemented from SoPerspectiveCamera.
