1. An apparatus for extracting a movement path, the apparatus comprising:
- a processor configured to;
receive an image from a camera group in which a mutual positional relationship among cameras is fixed;
receive geographic coordinates of a moving object on which the camera group is fixed, wherein the geographic coordinates receiver receives the geographic coordinates of the moving object using a position receiving apparatus to verify a position of the moving object; and
extract a movement path of the camera group based on a direction and a position of a reference camera of the camera group and a direction and a position of a remaining cameras and the geographic coordinates, extract feature points of images photographed by the reference camera from an image sequence photographed by the camera group, match the feature points of images photographed by the reference camera, detect the direction and the position of the reference camera based on a result of the matching, extract feature points of images photographed by cameras remaining after excluding the reference camera from the camera group from an image sequence photographed by the camera group, match the feature points of the images photographed by the remaining cameras using a fundamental matrix or an essential matrix based on the direction and the position of the reference camera and a relative positional relationship between the remaining cameras and the reference camera, and detect the direction and the position of the remaining cameras based on a result of the matching.

9. A method of extracting a movement path, the method comprising:
-
receiving an image from a camera group in which a mutual positional relationship among cameras is fixed; receiving geographic coordinates of a moving object on which the camera group is fixed, wherein the receiving is based on verifying a position of the moving object; and extracting a movement path of the camera group based on a direction and a position of a reference camera of the camera group and a direction and a position of a remaining cameras and the geographic coordinates, wherein the extracting extracts feature points of images photographed by the reference camera from an image sequence photographed by the camera group, matches the feature points of images photographed by the reference camera, and detects the direction and the position of the reference camera based on a result of the matching, and wherein the extracting extracts feature points of images photographed by cameras remaining after excluding the reference camera from the camera group from an image sequence photographed by the camera group, matches the feature points of the images photographed by the remaining cameras using a fundamental matrix or an essential matrix based on the direction and the position of the reference camera and a relative positional relationship between the remaining cameras and the reference camera, and detects the direction and the position of the remaining cameras based on a result of the matching. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. An apparatus for extracting a movement path, the apparatus comprising:
-
one or more processors configured to; to receive an image from a camera group in which a mutual positional relationship among cameras is fixed; to receive geographic coordinates of a moving object on which the camera group is fixed, wherein the geographic coordinates receiver receives the geographic coordinates of the moving object using a position receiving apparatus to verify a position of the moving object; and to extract a movement path of the camera group based on a direction and a position of a reference camera of the camera group and a direction and a position of a remaining cameras and the geographic coordinates, wherein the one or more processors extracts feature points of images photographed by the reference camera from an image sequence photographed by the camera group, matches the feature points of images photographed by the reference camera, and detects the direction and the position of the reference camera based on a result of the matching, and wherein the one or more processors extracts feature points of images photographed by cameras remaining after excluding the reference camera from the camera group from an image sequence photographed by the camera group, matches the feature points of the images photographed by the remaining cameras using a fundamental matrix or an essential matrix based on the direction and the position of the reference camera and a relative positional relationship between the remaining cameras and the reference camera, and detects the direction and the position of the remaining cameras based on a result of the matching.
