Need to find decent starting position about p5.xr HOT 4 CLOSED

The starting position of the viewer is the same as a typical webgl default camera position.

• The viewer is placed at the origin of the world.
• the zx plane of world is the physical horizontal plane (perpendicular to gravity) of the viewer.
• y axis of the world is opposite to gravity. (towards sky)
• -z axis is the component of starting forward vector of viewer onto the zx plane.
• x axis is the starting right vector of viewer.

let vrGlobals = {
  counter: 0
};

function preload() {
  createVRCanvas();
}

function setup() {
  setVRBackgroundColor(200, 0, 150);
}

function draw() {
  fill(0, 255, 0);
  checkSync();
  vrGlobals.counter++;
  
  translate(0, 0, -10);
  strokeWeight(0.1);
  
  box(5);
}

function checkSync() {
  if(vrGlobals.counter === 0) {return;}

  if(vrGlobals.counter !== frameCount) {
    console.error('Out of sync!');
  }
}

This example places a box on the negative z axis. So when the user first goes to VR mode, the cube will be directly visible to the front just by moving the head up and down (the head should be facing front perpendicular to gravity). The movement of head up and down from starting position will allow aligning the viewer's forward vector along the -z axis.

Right I understand. My main concern is whether every frame the camera should be shifted in the z-vector. If I draw a sphere at 0,0 then where do I expect that to be in relation to my body to most effectively match the experience of WebGL mode on the screen. This isn't a technical question as much as a question of design and achieve a good 'feeling' out of the box for the user.

As we discussed, how do you feel about giving user the capability to specify starting position or interestingly, let the user decide the viewers position at any point? The api for this could be very similar to p5 camera or maybe we can attach a viewer to a perspective camera?

Definitely! Do you want to propose one or two methods?
