Problem Statement

Let VV be the set of non-collinear pairs of vectors in R3\mathbb{R}^3, and HH be the set of lines passing through the origin. Is is true that for every continuous map f ⁣:VHf\colon V\rightarrow H there exists a continuous map g ⁣:VR3\{0}g\colon V\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^3\,\backslash\,\{ 0\} such that g(v)f(v)g(v)\in f(v) for all vVv\in V?
