Very interesting concept indeed.

They make it sound so simple that at the same time it sounds too good to be true. But, yes it is interesting.

It's already being used on a an Australian built 'supercar', so obviously in production. If I have the patience, I wouldn't mind reading the technical white paper on their site.
