Now, I have something: Picture-in-Picture.
Without C implementation on the roblox code it would hog the local client's CPU and Memory 'till a BSoD happens.
The CameraLabel would have properties according to a camera: FieldOfView, CoordinateFrame, Focus.
It would be a gui because if so, it would be easier to make CCTV systems or just plain out decoration, in ScreenGUIs, BillboardGUIs and SurfaceGUIs.
To solve lag problems, add a property named MaxPartsToBeShown, or a property named MaxDistanceForRender.
So, why not? |

Good for builders, better for scripters and entertaining for players. |

| I was thinking that it can be used for Telescopes, security cameras, and that stuff. Kinda like rocket propulsion, except the camera attaches to one part and watches a robloxian. |

| I've been wanting this for a long time. I'm sure it's been suggested before, but not in as much detail as you've specified. Endless possibilities for this, e.g. RP games can use it for live TV and stuff. 👍 Support. |

Despite it being scriptable, I support.

Yes, I know it can be scriptable, but those systems aren't fast, and sometimes they lag badly. |

I don't know anything about scripting, but basically you were saying: You apply it to something like a security camera, and if a player were to walk somewhere in the range of the camera, it could show up somewhere else like on a TV? |

| Yes, an example would be that. But also, real Cinemas that shows movies in 3D, House improvements (Door Cameras), Tie Cams (For RP end, i.e. Intelligence Agencies), Security Systems (as you said), etc. |

| And, for those who wanna remake Portal in ROBLOX, could use a SurfaceGUI with the CameraLabel to make the effect of see-thru portals. |

| Yeah, and I can only agree that it would be too laggy. At any point that I accelerate the "Sweep" in my TV screen, the server lags VERY badly. |
