  \brief Class that defines the simplest robot: a free flying camera.

  This free flying camera has 6 dof; 3 in translation and 3 in rotation.
  It evolves as a gentry robot with respect to a world frame. This class
  is similar to vpSimulatorCamera class except that here the position of the robot
  is provided as the transformation from camera frame to world frame; cMw. Since
  the position of the camera frame evolves, this representation is less intuitive
  than the one implemented in vpSimulatorCamera where the transformation from world
  to camera frame is considered; wMc.

  \note We recommend to use vpSimulatorCamera rather than vpRobotCamera.

  For this particular simulated robot, the end-effector and camera frame are confused.
  That means that the cMe transformation is equal to identity.

  The robot jacobian expressed in the end-effector frame
  \f$ {^e}{\bf J}_e \f$ is also set to identity (see get_eJe()).

  The following code shows how to control this robot in position and velocity.
  \code
#include <visp/vpRobotCamera.h>

int main()
{
  vpHomogeneousMatrix cMw;
  vpRobotCamera robot;

  robot.getPosition(cMw); // Position of the camera in the world frame
  std::cout << "Default position of the camera in the world frame cMw:\n" << cMw << std::endl;

  cMw[2][3] = 1.; // World frame is 1 meter along z axis in front of the camera frame
  robot.setPosition(cMw); // Set the new position of the camera wrt the world frame
  std::cout << "New position of the camera wrt the world frame cMw:\n" << cMw << std::endl;

  robot.setSamplingTime(0.100); // Modify the default sampling time to 0.1 second
  robot.setMaxTranslationVelocity(1.); // vx, vy and vz max set to 1 m/s
  robot.setMaxRotationVelocity(vpMath::rad(90)); // wx, wy and wz max set to 90 deg/s

  vpColVector v(6);
  v = 0;
  v[2] = 1.; // set v_z to 1 m/s
  robot.setVelocity(vpRobot::CAMERA_FRAME, v);
  // The robot has moved from 0.1 meters along the z axis
  robot.getPosition(cMw); // Position of the camera wrt the world frame
  std::cout << "New position of the camera cMw:\n" << cMw << std::endl;
}
  \endcode
