Hi Nicolas,
I think the best way to move your viewpoint with an object is to create a
scenegraph with a path from the Locale down to your Viewplatform where your
object is somewhere ´between´ these two nodes:

Locale
->..
-->TransformGroup
--->yourObject
------>...
----------->Viewplatform

Now,when changing the TransformGroup above yourObject with an
Interpolator-object your viewplatform does not change its position
relatively to yourObject.
Unfortunately, I am no fan of the SimpleUniverse, so I cannot tell you how
to build this scenegraph branch with this class.

Regards,
Marco.
