% HOMOGRAPHY2D - computes 2D homography
%
% Usage:   H = homography2d(x1, x2)
%          H = homography2d(x)
%
% Arguments:
%          x1  - 3xN set of homogeneous points
%          x2  - 3xN set of homogeneous points such that x1<->x2
%         
%           x  - If a single argument is supplied it is assumed that it
%                is in the form x = [x1; x2]
% Returns:
%          H - the 3x3 homography such that x2 = H*x1
%
% This code follows the normalised direct linear transformation 
% algorithm given by Hartley and Zisserman "Multiple View Geometry in
% Computer Vision" p92.
