Functional Details
This module prepares a specified object for being moved (translated) a specified amount along the x, y, and z axes.
Note: A Transform object containing the specified transformation matrix is inserted at the root of the object. This transform is applied during rendering.
| input | specifies the object to be translated. | 
| translation | is the translation vector. No translation occurs for the default value of [0 0 0]. A specification of [0 1 0] (to take one example) will move the specified object one unit in the y-direction. |
