/*
The following program shows you the basic steps needed to display 3D objects.
1.  Create a virtual universe to contain your scene.
2.  Create a data structure to contain a group of objects.
3.  Add an object to the group
4.  Position the viewer so that they are looking at the object
5.  Add the group of objects to the universe

Positioning the Objects

/*
The Joy of Java 3D

/*
Positioning the Objects
In Java 3D, locations are described by using x, y, z coordinates. Increasing coordinates 
go along the x-axis to the right, along the y-axis  upwards, and along the z-axis out of 
the screen. This is called a "right-handed" coordinate system because the thumb and first
two fingers of your right hand can be used to represent the three directions. All the 
distances are measured in meters.

To place your objects in the scene, you start at point (0,0,0), and then move the objects 
wherever you want. Moving the objects is called a "transformation", so the classes you 
use are: TransformGroup and Transform3D.  You add both the object and the Transform3D to 
a TransformGroup  before adding the TransformGroup to the rest of your scend

Step                                                             Example
1.  Create a transform, a transform                         Transform = new Transform3D();
group and an object                                          transformGroup tg  = new TransformGroup();
                                                 
                                                            Cone cone = new Cone(0.5f, 0.5f);
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.  Specify a location for the object                        Vector3f vector = new Vector3f(-.2f,.1f , -.4f);
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3.  Set the transform to move (translate)                   Transform.setTranslation(vector); 
the object to that location  
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.  Add the transform to the transform group                tg.setTransform(transform);
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5.  Add the object to the transform group                    tg.addChild(cone);

This example displays the different objects on each axis.
