The room is a cube with the camera at its center. We use a chebyshev normalization

of that vector onto the room's walls. The Room Vector is the immediate the X, Y and Z
coordinate of the corresponding ADM Block Format source object position.
The Pro Tools/Dolby Atmos workflow I am targeting uses "Room Centric" panner coordinates
("cartesian allocentric coordinates" in ADM speak) and this process seems to yield good
results.
I also experimented with using normalized camera frame coordinates from the
bpy_extras.object_utils.world_to_camera_view method and this gives very good results as
long as the object is on-screen; coordinates for objects off the screen are unusable.
In the future it would be worth exploring wether there's a way to produce ADM
coordinates that are "Screen-accurate" while the object is on-screen, but still gives
sensible results when the object is off-screen as well.
