House of Cards Video done Without Cameras or Lights

I would promise to stop posting Radiohead related stuff, it’s not as if they needed exposure, but this is to cool to ignore. This video was done using Google Code’s Creative Commons License software. It was done with no cameras and no lights. From the Google Code Page:

No cameras or lights were used. Instead two technologies were used to capture 3D images:Geometric Informatics and Velodyne LIDAR. Geometric Informatics scanning systems produce structured light to capture 3D images at close proximity, while a Velodyne Lidar system that uses multiple lasers is used to capture large environments such as landscapes. In this video, 64 lasers rotating and shooting in a 360 degree radius 900 times per minute produced all the exterior scenes.
