The technique presented in this video is called HBAO - horizon-based ambient occlusion and it is only one of many that are used by games to achieve good lighting. HBAO fakes a lighting phenomenon achieving plausible results.

I still have to work on my implementation but you can check my code if you want to: https://github.com/meemknight/gl3d/blob/master/gl3d/shaders/hbao/hbao.frag
