Two technologies called Geometric Informatics and Velodyne LIDAR were used to capture 3D images for the new video of Radiohead’s latest single ‘House of Cards.’
Geometric Informatics is a scanning system that produces structured light to capture 3D images up close.
The Velodyne Lidar system is comprised of multiple lasers that can capture large environments like landscapes.
In the House of Cards video, 64 lasers were rotating in 360 degrees and shooting at 900 times per minute to make all the exterior scenes.
The Radiohead video can be seen here.
