According to the invention, traffic conditions can be recorded by means of at least two cameras (2, 3), which are located at a distance (15) from one another on a vehicle (1). The recording zones (11, 12) of said cameras intersect (13), thus enabling at least one reference point (R) of the environment and/or identification point of at least one second vehicle to be triangulated (T), e.g. by photogrammetry. After an accident, the behaviour of one or more vehicles (1) can be reconstructed. In addition to the respective spatial position, the three-dimensional, synchronised recording enables the speed, speed direction, changes in direction, acceleration and braking manoeuvres and the self-rotation of the individual vehicles about their centre of gravity to be identified and measured to scale, without requiring a plurality of sensors to be provided on the vehicles. The vehicles (1) can also be projected into a 3D image of the environment to calculate and reproduce a virtual representation from any spectator's perspective.

L'invention concerne l'enregistrement d'une situation de circulation à l'aide de deux caméras (2, 3) disposées à une certaine distance (15) l'une de l'autre sur un véhicule (1). Les zones d'enregistrement (11, 12) de ces caméras se coupent (13), ce qui permet la triangulation (T) d'au moins un point de référence (R) de l'environnement et/ou d'un point de reconnaissance d'au moins un deuxième véhicule, par exemple par photogrammétrie. Après un accident, le comportement d'au moins un véhicule (1) peut être reconstitué. La détection tridimensionnelle temporellement cadencée permet d'identifier et de mesurer à l'échelle non seulement la position spatiale respective mais aussi la vitesse, la direction de la vitesse, les changements de direction, les manoeuvres d'accélération et de freinage ainsi que les rotations propres des différents véhicules autour de leur centre de gravité et ce, sans que les véhicules ne nécessitent quantité de capteurs. Les véhicules (1) peuvent également être représentés dans une image d'environnement 3D pour calculer et reproduire une représentation virtuelle de la perspective d'un observateur quelconque.
