/**
 * @class   vtkProp3DFollower
 * @brief   a vtkProp3D that always faces the camera
 *
 * vtkProp3DFollower is a type of vtkProp3D that always faces the camera.
 * More specifically it will not change its position or scale,
 * but it will continually update its orientation so that it is right side
 * up and facing the camera. This is typically used for complex billboards
 * or props that need to face the viewer at all times.
 *
 * Note: All of the transformations that can be made to a vtkProp3D will take
 * effect with the follower. Thus, if you change the orientation of the
 * follower by 90 degrees, then it will follow the camera, but be off by 90
 * degrees.
