setup a stereo rig

Hello,

I built a stereo camera rig, and I wanted to do triangulation (find X(3d) from xL and xR)

but althought I have good features matches, the fundamental matrix gets sometimes right, sometimes out of whack, no matter what algo I use(ransac, 7pts, 8pts, lmds) if I check xL.t() * F * xR, I get sometimes results close to 0 (barely) sometimes way more than 1

so is it possible that becos of my two cameras are parallel ? should I turn them to some focal point, I though about making it variable, but I would have to recalibrate the rig all the time

the other solution, is to use only one camera and to triangulate from consecutive images (robot moving in 3D space)

any advice is welcome

I can provide the code if needed, but I am pretty sure it is not the issue
