My New Favorite Song...

This is the new video for Radiohead- House of Cards from their new album, "In Rainbows." This shit is quite ill, and employs the use of an advanced laser technology.







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.

The making-of video shows how the video was made and the various technologies that were used to capture and render 3D data.
