Houdini 20.5 Nodes Copernicus nodes

Match Camera Copernicus node

Transform a Layer to match a reference camera.

On this page

Each layer consists of not just a location and orientation in space, but also a camera transform of how to image the rest of the 3d space onto the layer.

This operation copies the location, orientation, and camera information from one layer onto another. This has the effect of moving the layer to the reference space without affecting its data.

With no camera specified, it is returned to the canonical transform. This is very useful to take in layers with a transform but work with them in a location-invariant manner. A final Match Camera COP can refer to the original layer to transform back.
