Abstract
Let S be a set of six points in space, let ψ be any hyperboloid of one sheet containing S, and let I be a sequence of images of S taken by an uncalibrated camera moving over ψ. Then reconstruction from I is subject to a three way ambiguity which is unbroken as long as the optical centre of the camera remains on ψ. Let p be an image of S taken from a point on ψ. The images `near´ p define a tangent space which splits into a direct sum Wp⊕Np⊕Fp, where Wp corresponds to images near p for which the ambiguity is maintained, Np corresponds to images for which the ambiguity is broken and Fp corresponds to images which are physically impossible
