[:// The same way we have Surface GUI's, It would be pretty nice if we could have Surface Cameras.
It'd be almost like a TV, or Security system. Here is an example of how it can work:
You keep a part which has a lookvector, looking at a part that's hovering using body position.
You then assign it something called a "CamLink"
Basically, you'd have another part somewhere in the map, that will have a "Surface Camera" instance.
The CamLink will basically have it's parent to which part will be the Surface Camera. Just like we have Cameras that can be attached to different things with a property.
For tl;dr people:
Live Camera whos output can be put on a part.
For developers; [THINGS THAT CAN BE MADE USING THIS]
-TV ( Movies can be made combining this with the Animation System ) -Security System -Motion Sensors that are activated by people. -Person Alert ( Raycast the lookvector in a straight line of the CamLink Part) -Mirrors -Car Mirrors -Car Reverse Gear -Holographic screens.
And much more.
If you support, please say "Support" If you'd like more information, I'd happily emphasize on how can work.
I also have an idea for a 3D Region Camera. I'll explain that in another post. \\:]

I have to say this to everyone, huh?
Naruto did something similar to this. Find it here:

There was another thread a while back:
It might be hard to implement and would probably cause lag, but with a low FPS I support. |

@Suc
Naruto isn't the newest to do that. People did that years back with raycasting.
That is NOT at all what I'm describing.

| Raycasting does not count. Not properly. |

| @Nikola7007: Drop support for older hardware, use more modern engines, make Portal. |

| But really, if we can already have something that's almost like what you are suggesting, why suggest it at all? What naruto did was pretty good, IMO |

| I say at the very least make it a snapshot style feature. Then we can still do loads of features with it. |

Even if there is a slight delay, the camera part can keep saving frame snapshots, and it sends it back to the Surface Camera part.
Even if it runs at 20 FPS, it will still be of use. |
