What technology was this filmed with? D-VHS wasn't commercially available until 1998. Was this made with a prototype?

The description on the YouTube page says the original footage came from a Japanese high definition demo (probably a HiVison MUSE system). HiVision MUSE has development going back to 1979 according to Wikipedia [1].
