As someone who knows more than 'a bit', I can tell you, it smells like snake oil from miles away. All the obvious signs are there: needlessly bashing existing tech, handwaving around very hard problems and demo videos that are staged to hide the obvious flaws from the untrained eye.
Plus, they've been hyping up the same tech for years now, with very little progress. People keep throwing the same criticisms at them, and they keep delivering very unimpressive responses.
If they've indeed scored $2 million of government grants already with this demo, as others allege, then it couldn't be more obvious: it's a zombie company designed to look impressive and leech off investor money, nothing more. It's centered around tech that has already been explored thoroughly by academia and industry, and we know where the practical problems lie in turning it into a viable game tech.
