LiDAR is incredibly useful in showing foundation issues in houses where damage and instability occurs. Foundation repair companies really need to use this if they aren't already.
I think LiDAR will eventually will let us calculate the correct body measurement for new shoes, attire etc
This may be revolutionary in e-commerce industry
Just my 2 cents
you can do that with a camera. There is a measuring tool already.. but you are absolutely correct about a higher fidelity use of measurement to capture the entire form of the foot to find the exact shoe .
I think your right. You easily can make a scan of yourself and use it as your own avatar to shop clothes online.
@@JSM-ij3gq or u can use a mesureing tape that costs 1$
That's actually practical.
@@JSM-ij3gq hmmm
As someone in construction and often times needing basic measurements for reference points, calculating square footage, window sizing, etc, the new LIDAR is fantastic. I'm extremely excited about it coming out on their iphone in order to incorporate it into my workflow without the need for the 12.9" behemoth of an ipad scanning around the room.
Dang this was a really good video. Perfect amount of time, honest, high quality. Thank you!!
I work in the construction industry and we use LIDAR to map construction sites in full 3D in order to verify and assess any changes or issues in our coordination in our BIM (Revit) models. It's actually amazing what this technology can do. We have mapped overheard work in 3D before the ceilings were installed and then have a peermanent 3D snapshot on the work that we can use to verify our insallation at any time afterwards without the need of removing ceiling tiles or sending guys into the field.
When you mention the RaDAR and LiDAR, I was blown for a moment haha. Great explanation David 🔥
The explanation for the different capabilities is the wavelength, nothing else. He explained it wrong.
@Robert Slackware Microwaves have a longer wavelength than (near) visible light. Resolution will not be so good though range should be longer.
I like how accurately you explain things. You gave me answers to all of my questions regarding LiDAR and ToF. Thanks 😊
It's so when armed drones are sent out on kill missions, it can detect, lock and kill a target easy.
Omg, the decoder series is just quality. Love learning about tech, more than new product reviews. This series really differentiates the channel as so much more than a mere tech reviewer. Shows David has both a genuine interest and passion for tech. Again, really helpful and easy to understand guide. Nicely done sir!
Thank you so much!! More coming ASAP 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you sir for that awesome info! As always profi and detailed.
Thanks for clearing that up much appreciated 👍🏾💯🙏
Wooah!! Brother thank you for explaining in detail... looking forward to your next videos✌️
My wife and I are watching Naruto for the first time.. we’re on itachi’s back story 😅
Great thanks - first sensible explanation I’ve seen thanks.
Yeah you rock. You did a great job explaining everything. You were clear and easy to understand. The video was a perfect length with no long intro. I don’t know anything about the kind of content you usually talk about but you showed up on my feed and I’ll hit the subscribe button. Hope to learn more from you in the near future.
Super helpful David - awesome video!
😀
How do you find it in XS ?
Feature without a purpose
I'm also ur subscriber
It seems as if the point method for Apples lidar is lower in resolution than a traditional tof system
Very well explained!
LIDAR has been in use for about 20 years for writing speeding tickets. Since the beam used by the previous radar systems covered more than one car at the usual speed detection distance, it has been replaced with a LIDAR system in most jurisdictions. The LIDAR uses an infrared laser beam with a very low divergence this makes it easy to target a single car through the conventional optical sighting system in the same speed gun. This is one of the early uses that helped drive the development of low cost optical Time Of Flight sensor systems.
A great video. A useful addition to the knowledge and understanding of basic remote sensing.
Great explanation!
I’m keen to see this getting used in the iPhone cameras so that a whole scene can be captured in focus (high aperture) with the LIDAR information stored in metadata. An area of the shot can then be ‘focused’ on in post-production, using the LIDAR information to determine how much blurring to apply to the rest of the pic based on how far away different things are.
It might also be a useful aid to the visually impaired...
great comment thanks
i think apple is implementing lidar in their iphones and iPads to collect some data for the upcoming apple glasses and make them work better in the beginning
Fpt
Think so too.
Google Glass failed because of security concerns, nobody likes a camera on their face or sitting opposed to someone with a camera on their face. Lidar is more anonymous in that sense, and will probably therefore be used in apple Glasses
How could we better spy on customers?
Apple: LIDAR
@@aRYANz88 I mean, No? Apple has tons of problems, but they are by far the least Spy and track you Compared to any of the other large tech companies.
yes
Thanks for the video. I rarely use the measuring app too, because it isn't acurate enough. If that was changed through the adding of a LIDAR sensor, i might use it alle the time :)
I did not know what exactly LiDar was, now I do! You learn something new everyday! I was just talking to my wife about possibly buying the 12 Pro Max and I explained the LiDar sensor and showed her some videos of how it works, thanks David.
NICE, The more you know, I really couldn't tell the difference since the use case is the same
Thank you David, you made it so much easier to understand! Enjoy your video! 👍
Love the videos. Can I ask, what smart watch are you wearing?
First time hearing it, I thought it was for detecting liars.
Hahaha fair enough.
ba dum tssss
Make this best comment pls
Do iphones have gaydar yet?
ThothHeartMaat lol..you get why I said lidar sounds like a lie detector app.
Great video! Well done! Thank you!
Awesome video. I literally loved watching it. Thank you so so much
Simple and straight to the point explanation, great job!
With the release of LiDAR on the iPhone 12, your thoughts about "Why?" in consumer electronics became clear to me. My wife and I are in the beginning stages of renovations, and having something that will give me accurate measurements would be incredibly helpful! Thanks for the info!
Uh, don't rely on this LiDAR for accurate measurements. It's at least off by +/-2cm. The resolution of the sensor is very low. It's using dot-projection flash LiDAR, not the laser beam steering ones that are much higher res.
Awesome, thank you for explaining what LiDar is about.
Great idea to use Nest camera to demonstrate IR differences. Very helpful. Thanks
That was an awesome video! Didactic, straightforward and informative! Thanks!
🙏🙏🙏
@TheUnlockr Can you also test how far the Lidar and ToF sensor can reach with your Nest cam for the iPad and S20 Ultra?
Great explanation!
I've never heard of it.
Well, great video. Explanation are clear as crystal. Help me to figure out a bit more. Thumbs up and follow you now sir !
This, this is going to change the D pic game completely.
Oh yea, now ya get cave pics and slide the models together
Bezos approves ...
Excellent video David! Keep up the good work.
Great video of explanation and demonstration of lidar, radar and time of flight. Nice one👍
I have mine arriving tomorrow. I can’t wait to see what I can do with the LiDAR and AR for my landscaping work. It’s going to be so much easier instead of taking pictures, uploading them to a laptop, then using a separate $1500 software to create renderings. I can get it all done without having to go back to my office or carry around a laptop with me.
super precise and super easy to understand......thanks for this piece of knowledge
By far the best explanation of LiDAR, unlike other videos that are trying so hard to "sound smart", only to end up effortlessly overcomplicating the concept!
Cool, much helpful, Keep making more video bro!
Good summary and comparison video! As suspected (disappointedly) there’s not a lot of routine uses for it for most people... yet. Hopefully it will improve auto focus, measuring, and perhaps some other things we can’t yet imagine.
Thank you for a video on LiDar.
Very helpful vid!!! THanks for the explanation :) ... can I use this as a 3D scanner for 3D modelling??
Thank you so much for the explanation following you from Morocco
I love the explanation😍
You got a subs😊
Ah yes lidar; for when I want to scan an item from my competitor so I can send it quickly to have it 3d printed in a sweat shop
Simply amazing. Super explanations. Still can’t see how me personally am going to use LIDAR on my phone! Any idea of what AR apps might come out that I might find helpful and make my life easier?
Thank you that was very informative! :)
Thank you!
Hmmmph. Who knew! Great vid and I totally agree about limited use cases.
so basically is Face ID tech for back camera.. Great video, especially with showing the projection with night vision :)
Nice eplaination! Thank you very much.
Excellent explanation!
I love the video man you really nailed it, and I am looking forward to lidar technology and I hope that Apple and android devices will use LiDAR for example a 3-D scanning, and making 3-D objects that can be put into a blender scene or any other 3-D animation software.
Thank you, I was wondering what it was.
Liked your way of showing IR rays from smartphones using NEST. It gave me a real sense of what could it look like.
Great explanations and would LOVE to see this for AF on DSLRs.
It would start creating issues in most situations. Can’t depend on it to hit anything far at such a small size.
Thanks....could be useful for my arch design business!
Excellent short, factual and to the point video on LiDAR! Thanks! I’ll be searching for more of your videos!! Steve on Thursday 22 October 2020
Hello Steve
Thank for this video ! Awesome explanation.
Thank you for the explanation 👍
Nice job with the visual demonstration! This has so many possibilities in my field of work... I've always been opposed to iPhones, but this actually makes me consider it. But then again, if iPhone has it now, Samsung will have something better in less than a year.
Well said and true. Great vid.Thank you.See you again.Cheers.
Thank you. Very informative.
Super helpful. Thanks!
Thanks for giving clear picture between LiDAR & RaDAR and thanks for sharing !!
Magicplan's use of it seems sweet. Using LiDar to measure spaces for floor plans. Realtors and architects, painters, estimators, contractors, etc need this. Energy modellers and HVAC people also need volume measurements. (And they do air flows calcs for rooms etc. Like in Wrightsoft software). Pair it with those fancy FLIR sensors, and some AI energy modelling like lightspark, could be pretty cool!
I see this being super helpful to me with CAD and architectural work especially with establishing existing conditions.
Yeah, I studied industrial design for a short time and that'd be super helpful!
What camera are you using??? It is amazing clear!!!
Thanks, great explanation
Just the information I was after, thank you
Thanks for explanation 👍😃🎉👏👏
Hi, enjoyed your video talking about Lidar. I wonder if this is possible that you can make a video on the most popular applications (Apps) that we can use Lidar in day to day use.
Thank you, that was great!!!
Thank you for making this clear.
Thank you for making this understandable in a reasonable amount of time.
Combined with the U1 chip and upcoming clever hardware, I expect to see AirTags appearing in AR space so you can see exactly where things are.
Superb demo. Thanks.
Interesting feed. Thank you...
I’m excited to see how they improve on portrait mode
Thanks! Great and simple explanation in 5 mins! I'll share it with my kids ;-)
Nice and simple explanation -- Thanks
Thanks for the detailed information.
Very well explanation .. thanks very much 👍
Really informative.👍
Great video, I am a drone operator for Florida Power and Light and my company has plans to add LiDAR to our list of services, and I’m clueless. Helped a lot💪🏽
Interesting video Dude!
Thanks for this
Which one do you think is the best? Flashlight like ToF or Dot projector like Lidar?
Sharp and quick. Thanks.
So much better and detailed explanation.
What would you recommend for real estate mapping and design stagings that will work with my pro Max 12 or iPad Pro
Awesome video thanks!
Thanks man, I had no idea.
nice explanation and demonstration
Simple explanation. Thanks.
Very good explanation. Well done
Also focusing in dim light which is something Apple is using it for. How often is that used? A lot, indoors, or outdoors in the evening. Faster, more accurate focus is always desirable.
