it's actually completly different though
instead of a three sided rotor it uses four blades and it's in an oval shell so it rotates from a diamond and then collapes into a square (more compression)

It seems that every month for the last 50 years (or more), someone has come out with some kind of new engine that promises to 'revolutionize the world' with its increased HP, increased fuel economy, and decreased emissions. Yet none has been any kind of threat to the conventional piston engine. In other words, I am not holding my breath on this one.
