Interesting but color me skeptical of claims that they "[take] computing concepts to a whole new level". This would be fantastic if they could do it, and I think asynchronous event-driven circuits are definitely a move in the right direction, but the supposed "blog" they link to is nearly content-free marketspeak. The hyperbolic claims and lack of proven results set off little warning bells on this PR piece.

If you check out the "publications" tab there is more substantial content. The first one in the list is a pretty readable yet detailed description of their approach and philosophy.

That is a fair point, and I admit that I read into the blog post more than was actually claimed.
