Point Cloud Visualization
This new video from Linkin Park is the latest installment of this trend.
It utilizes information taken by a camera that uses no film and needs no lights. It basically creates a lidar point scan of anything you put in front of it. It was first used on this video from Radiohead.
I also found that IBM recently did an entire campaign based on this look.
All in all, I like how the Linkin Park video takes it one step further and stylizes the technique with added visualization animation and lens flairs to give it a little polish. The Radiohead video always seemed a bit to rough. Also, you can take it one step further and watch David McCandless discuss the beauty of data visualization here.
