inline cv::Mat getProjectionMat(const cv::Mat &T, const cv::Mat &K){

  cv::Mat R = T(cv::Range(0, 3), cv::Range(0, 3));
  cv::Mat t = T(cv::Range(0, 3), cv::Range(3, 4));

  cv::Mat P(3, 4, CV_64F);

  P(cv::Range(0, 3), cv::Range(0, 3)) = R.t();
  P(cv::Range(0, 3), cv::Range(3, 4)) = -R.t()*t;
  return  K*P;
}

A simple example you can think of is a camera that moves in the x direction by 1 unit with no rotation. So the camera pose is R = identity, t = [1,0,0]. If we are looking at a bunch of 3d points in front of us, then by moving the camera right, we expect the points to move left, resulting in the projection matrix [R=identity | t=[-1,0,0]]." - nghiaho12
