GPUCameraRenderer constructor
parameters used to create this GPUCameraRenderer
Camera used by this GPUCameraRenderer.
bind group handling the camera, lights and shadows BufferBinding.
Array of all the created Light.
An object defining the current lights binding parameters, including the maximum number of lights for each type and the structure used to create the associated BufferBinding.
An object defining the structure used to create the shadows BufferBinding.
The bindings used by the camera, lights and shadows bind group.

Options used to create this GPUCameraRenderer.
If our scene contains transmissive objects, we need to handle the rendering of transmissive meshes. To do so, we'll need a new screen pass RenderPassEntry and a Texture onto which we'll write the content of the non transmissive objects main buffer rendered objects.
OptionalpassEntry?: RenderPassEntryThe new screen pass RenderPassEntry where we'll draw our transmissive objects.
Optionaltexture?: TextureThe Texture holding the content of all the non transmissive objects we've already drawn onto the main screen buffer.

This renderer is meant to render meshes projected by a Camera. It therefore creates a Camera with its associated bindings as well as lights and shadows bindings used for lighting and their associated bind group.
Can be safely used to render compute passes and meshes if they do not need to be tied to the DOM.
