Abstract
This paper considers, the determination of internal camera parameters from two views of a point set in three dimensions. A non-iterative algorithm is given for determining the focal lengths of the two cameras, as well as their relative placement, assuming all other internal camera parameters to be known. It is shown that this is all the information that may be deduced from a set of image correspondences.
