They're talking about the SDK and most of the headset technology as well as the firmware. Luckey's key contribution was the wide-angle optics.

Actually, the wide-angle optics came from Luckey's professor, Mark Bolas [1,2]. Luckey combined it with the head angle tracking and a vastly polished design for the unit, though.
