Summary
LiDAR is a surveying method that uses light to measure distance and create three-dimensional representations of objects
It has been used for scientific purposes, such as mapping and forestry, but is now being utilised in gaming
LiDAR Exploration Program is a chilling game in which users explore landscapes with a LiDAR gun to create 3D images
The game, made by developer KenForest, is available as a demo on Itch and full version on Steam
It is described as a “relaxing atmospheric horror game”, in which players can take their time to explore through the angle and focus of their LiDAR gun
The eerie nature of the game emerges from the player’s ability to paint 3D images into being and the hollow appearance of objects when viewed from different angles
