+ Determines the number of viewpoints by putting cameras in a regular grid
in spherical coordinates. Note that (cos theta) and phi, not theta and phi,
are sampled uniformly so that the cameras are distributed uniformly in
solid angle (see this [http://mathworld.wolfram.com/SpherePointPicking.html
URL] for an explanation). The example given puts cameras in the six axes
directions.
