  View Consistency


These constraints can be used for checking the consistency of a system of views involving motion in a multiview environment. This is easy to see as the constraints we derived are view independent and should come out to be the same in all views. If we can track $N$ sets of $4$ points each for many time instant in each view, we can compute $N$ sets of $\beta$ values from the reference view. The same $\beta$ values will hold for all views for each set of points at every time instant. Given the image velocities in the other views and the $\beta$ values computed from the reference view, the matching time instants can be computed for each view, as in Subsection 4.1. A necessary condition for all the views to belong to the same motion configuration is that all computed $N$ time instants that align the views be congruent.
