A method and an apparatus for reconstructing a three dimensional model of an object are provided. The method includes the following steps. A plurality of first depth images of an object are obtained. According to a linking information of the object, the first depth images are divided into a plurality of depth image groups. The linking information records location information corresponding to a plurality of substructures of the object. Each depth image group includes a plurality of second depth images, and the substructures correspond to the second depth images. According to the second depth image and the location information corresponding to each substructure, a local module of each substructure is built. According to the linking information, the local models corresponding to the substructures are merged, and the three-dimensional model of the object is built.
