Description

Multiple users have asked for something like a follow camera, or a way to follow tracked-entities at a set zoom level or displacement.

Especially since we're currently working on a camera model like that in the cesium arcade game, it would be nice to potentially add such functionality to Cesium.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by reviewing Cesium's existing tracked-entity camera behavior and the camera model mentioned for the Cesium arcade game, then clarify the API and expected zoom-level or displacement behavior. Done means an agreed follow-camera design with defined behavior and coverage for the supported tracking cases.
