You need to apply a matcher (cv FlannMatcher for example) to detect which keypoints in both images correspond to the same point.

Then, with the paired matches you have to apply cv::findHomography(). This algorithm will use 4 matched pairs to extract the homography matrix.

The last step (some code here) is to convert from homography matrix to pose matrix (extrinsic parameters matrix). The pose matrix is composed by rotation and translation.

    Though stackoverflow is not a place where you can ask for code I can link you to a explanation of how to get pose from homography: http://dsp.stackexchange.com/a/2737/1473 – Jav_Rock Sep 04 '12 at 07:05
