There is also a video link on their website to L.A Autoshow demo, where they show the engine running on compressed air.
But if the idea is so good why not just run it on petrol etc?
Edit: added image of piston arrangement.

Works in theory(ish) but I can see the "pistons" getting very hot indeed along with the portions of cylinder wall that are subjected to
the combustion. Also the power stroke seems to only push the pistons round one way, what keeps the other piston moving against the expanding gas?
DO NOT PUT ON KNOB OR BOLLOCKS!
