Totally sweet. I wonder what hardware they used (laser scanner, camera).

Is that what you're looking for?

(1) Hokuyo laser rangefinder
(2) laser-deflecting mirrors for altitude
(3) monocular USB camera
(4) inertial measurement unit
(5) GumStix processor with wiFi link
(6) ARM microprocessor running low-level control loop at 1000Hz
