Abstract

The described technology provides a system and method of generating a 360-degree panoramic virtual reality (VR) image by using a plurality of photograph images. A plurality of image capturing devices capture and transmit the plurality of photograph images, respectively. An image conversion device receives the plurality of photograph images from the plurality of image capturing devices, calibrates each of the plurality of photograph images using characteristic information of respective one of the plurality of image capturing devices, and stitches calibrated photograph images to generate the 360-degree panoramic VR image. According to embodiments, the user can check a situation of a monitoring area while changing the viewpoint of the 360-degree panoramic VR image or enjoy the generated VR contents at a high degree of immersion.
