This reminds me of the solar roads stuff from about a decade ago. The blindspots on this project are huge, but the difference between this and the solar roads: the solar roads thing was a Kickstarter with a big marketing campaign, and this looks like a media organization is overplaying a small project, like the recent Verge article about that one dude's cyberdeck project.
