FIELD: physics, video.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to generation of simulated video. The method includes installing a plurality of cameras in different directions in a location to record images of vehicles from different angles which are indexed; receiving source video input from a single-direction camera; generating a stream of video fragments of vehicles; correlating the vehicles in the video fragments with the corresponding stored images of vehicles using a sliding window with normalised cross correlation; retrieving images at another angle which correspond to the stored images of vehicles; merging the retrieved images into simulated video which displays vehicles moving in a different direction; generating simulated video with a different frame frequency than the frame frequency of the input source video to reduce blur and dimness of the input source video and rendering the simulated video.
EFFECT: obtaining simulated traffic video having high frame frequency, high resolution and multiple views by processing video from single-direction cameras having a low frame frequency and low resolution.
