Affine transformations
Affine transform (6 DoF) = translation + rotation +
scale + aspect ratio + shear
General affine
What is missing?
Canaletto
Are there any other planar transformations?
Homogeneous coordinates
We already used these
One extra step:
How do we compute projective transformations?

Projective transformations
Finding the transformation
a.k.a. Homographies
“keystone” distortions
How can we find the transformation between these images?
