In this paper we will investigate the different algebraic varieties and ideals that can be generated from multiple view geometry with uncalibrated cameras. The natural descriptor,Vn, is the image ofinunderndifferent projections. However, we will show thatVnis not a variety.Another descriptor, the varietyVb, is generated by all bilinear forms between pairs of views and consists of all points inwhere all bilinear forms vanish. Yet another descriptor, the variety,Vt, is the variety generated by all trilinear forms between triplets of views. We will show that whenn=3,Vtis a reducible variety with one component corresponding toVband another corresponding to the trifocal plane. In ideal theoretic terms this is called a primary decomposition. This settles the discussion on the connection between the bilinearities and the trilinearities.Furthermore, we will show that whenn=3,Vtis generated by the three bilinearities and one trilinearity and whenn≥4,Vtis generated by the (2n) bilinearities. This shows that four images is the generic case in the algebraic setting, becauseVtcan be generated by just bilinearities.
