Abstract
Provided are an apparatus and method for tracking a camera that reconstructs a real environment in three dimensions by using reconstruction segments and a volumetric surface. The camera tracking apparatus using reconstruction segments and a volumetric surface includes a reconstruction segment division unit configured to divide three-dimensional space reconstruction segments extracted from an image acquired by a camera, a transformation matrix generation unit configured to generate a transformation matrix for at least one reconstruction segment among the reconstruction segments obtained by the reconstruction segment division unit, and a reconstruction segment connection unit configured to rotate or move the at least one reconstruction segment according to the transformation matrix generated by the reconstruction segment division unit and connect the rotated and moved reconstruction segment with another reconstruction segment.
