3, it has at most rank 2. Moreover, we can show that the last column
of the global matrix also is a linear combination of the two first columns of P by writing

where v i,j is the j th coordinate of vertex v i . The coefficients of Eq. 3.7 are independent of the
correspondence considered and are therefore valid for any row i of the matrix. This means that the
entire last column can be expressed as a linear combination of the other columns of the matrix. Thus,
when N c 3, the rank of the matrix of Eq. 3.6 is always 6.
3.3.1.3 Reconstructing theWhole Mesh
As discussed above, when there are several triangles, using the weak perspective model amounts to
introducing a projection matrix per facet. However, since in reality we only have one camera, its
internal parameters, rotation matrix, and center are bound to be the same for each triangle. This
only lets us with a variable depth factor d f for each facet f among the N t facets of the mesh. We
can then write the system

The left half of M m , which is of size 2 N c ×
3 N v , N c being the total number of correspondences,
has at most rank 2 N v because P
has rank 2. We can then show that its right half, which is of size
2 N c × N t , has at most rank N t
1. To this end, we need to show that its last column can be expressed
