A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11922548B2) describes a system that integrates augmented reality technology with real-world accident scenes. The system includes a display interface, a camera, and an augmented reality visualization device. The device utilizes multiple data sources to store location information, accident details, participant information, and vehicle data. By analyzing these inputs, the device generates an augmented reality accident scene corresponding to the real-world location. Users can interact with the scene, modify it, and receive recommendations for objects to include. The system also allows for the validation and confirmation of the accident scene based on the collected data.

Furthermore, the system incorporates user information, insurance claim details, and policy information to provide a comprehensive overview of the accident scenario. The camera, often located on a user's mobile device, captures videos of the accident site and surrounding area. The system analyzes road configurations, vehicle speeds, weather conditions, and other relevant factors to create a detailed representation of the accident. Users can navigate within the augmented reality scene, interact with it, and even generate replay videos for a three-dimensional view. By comparing the scene with participant information, the system can identify areas of conflict and provide a consolidated view of the accident for all involved parties. Overall, the patented system offers a sophisticated approach to visualizing and analyzing accident scenes using augmented reality technology.
