Claims8
1-8. (canceled)
An accident information collection system comprising:
- a processor to execute a program;
- and
- a memory to store the program which, when executed by the processor, performs processes of,
- communicating with one or more vehicle-mounted devices each configured to generate accident information including information indicating a location and a video of an accident having occurred in a vehicle or a periphery of the vehicle;
- storing accident information received from at least one of the vehicle-mounted devices;
- and
- collecting accident information from at least another one of the vehicle-mounted devices existing in a periphery of a site of an accident indicated by the accident information stored,
- wherein the processes include:
- extracting frame images from videos of a site of an identical accident included in a respective plurality of pieces of accident information stored;
- correcting, for the extracted frame images, one or more of a difference in subject position, a difference in subject size, and a difference in image characteristic, the differences being caused between the frame images of the videos by a difference in position of corresponding vehicles and a difference in cameras attached to the respective vehicles;
- performing interpolation for adjusting a time interval between the frame images in the videos;
- and
- thereby generating a video indicating the accident temporally or spatially continuously.
