A Camera is a device through which the player views the world.
A screen space point is defined in pixels. The bottom-left of the screen is (0,0); the right-top
is (pixelWidth,pixelHeight). The z position is in world units from the Camera.
A viewport space point is normalized and relative to the Camera. The bottom-left of the Camera is
(0,0); the top-right is (1,1). The z position is in world units from the Camera.
A world space point is defined in global coordinates (for example, Transform.position).
Note that a class must not inherit from Camera directly. If you need to inherit from Camera see ScriptableCamera.
