PointsTo3D node: Demo

- [Instructor] To help explain the points to 3D node, I've prepared this little demo for you. What we have is a moving camera and a fixed object in 3D space. If you can sample the 2D location of the given point over three times during this scene. Right there. You can use that along with the moving camera information to triangulate the location of our point in 3D space. This requires a moving camera. This is the exact same mathematics used for doing camera tracking, only they're blasting hundreds of points, not just one. So now let's take a look at the points to 3D node and how you set it up.
