National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)

Caption

NIST researchers demonstrated that laser ranging could make a continuous series of "point clouds" of a piece of chocolate melting behind flames. The deformation process occurred over six minutes but is sped up in the video clip. The false color indicates depth, with blue being the closest and red the farthest away.
