Abstract:
Disclosed are an apparatus and method for reconstructing the scene of a traffic accident. The apparatus includes an information collection unit for receiving images and sounds of a scene of a traffic accident and a stationary object and a moving object located around the scene. A stationary object reconstruction unit reconstructs a 3D shape of the stationary object, and constructs a 3D accident environment. A moving object reconstruction unit aligns the images in time, detecting motions of the moving object from the aligned images, and combines the detected motions of the moving object into the 3D accident environment including the reconstructed stationary object according to times. A reproduction unit reproduces the scene of the traffic accident at corresponding time based on results of combination in response to a time-based playback request, the scene of the traffic accident being reproduced so that the 3D moving object is moved.
