# look(at:)

Orients the camera to face toward the specified point.

## Declaration

```swift
func look(at focusPosition: vector_float3)
```

## Parameters

- `focusPosition`: The point, in world space coordinates, to be made visible to the camera.

## Discussion

Discussion When calculating the new camera orientation, this method assumes the camera points in the negative z-axis direction and that the positive y-axis represents the up direction for the camera’s view.
