Essential matrix decomposition into rotation and translation

In this recipe, you will learn how to decompose essential matrices into two hypotheses about the relative rotation and translation vectors between two cameras in a stereo rig. This functionality is used when estimating stereo rig parameters.

Getting ready

Before you proceed with this recipe, you need to install the OpenCV version 3.3 (or greater) Python API package.

How to do it

You need to complete the following steps:

1. Import the necessary modules:

import cv2
import numpy as np

2. Load the precomputed essential...
