... except for the complex sealing surfaces.
... except for the cam balls spinning at N x rpm.
...
At least it doesn't have the usual toroidal cylinders and toroidal segment pistons.
I'm guessing the prototype split the cases at the cam tracks before it had time to coke up from blowby or seize from inadequate lubrication. ... but that's just speculation.

My assumption (which may well be wrong) is that any quantum leap in internal combustion engine architecture (or any significant technology, for that matter) will happen inside closed doors of industrial or government research, and will likely not attach the word "super" to its description. When it is publicized, it will be done very carefully, and deliberately, most likely in a peer-reviewed or patent publication.

As for the motor - at least they have a pretty looking prototype put together, not that it actually means anything.
