Yep spot on, a clear case of a single conceptual view, as well as all the contributing cameras sharing the scene and being relative to the view's master camera - so both a conceptual fit as well as implementation one. > 2) a 3rd-person stealth watching a UAV sensor platform: the UAV is > collecting sensor data from its viewpoint; an operator is watching the > UAV and a wireframe of its sensor volume sweeping the terrain. That > indicates CompositeViewer (the scene database could be identical, but > the sensor wont see its wireframe nor the UAV) Yep spot on again, the viewer (the person the viewer as in the english language definition) has two views of a scene so conceptually we have two views of one scene, on the implementation side you'd want to control the viewpoint of these views separately as well as some of the state - so again both a good conceptual fit as well as an implementation one.
