I'm pretty interested but no specs makes me wonder as well. Even the most basic specs would be good

They are using an igus DryLin carriage+rail for the vertical axis. I question the precision there, any time I have used those slides for an application there is a bit of play in them - they have to by design as they are sliding elements. Preloaded recirculating linear bearings would have been a better choice for an SLA machine to keep the precision.

I went to an AutoDesk presentation in Portland Oregon and they just barely touched on it.
They were much more excited about 3DS max and Maya... Which I can second them on the 3DS max bit.
Would have been nice to see the printer in person, but alas it wasn't there (of course it wasn't)

Rofl! Exactly what I was thinking!
But, I suspect that is their exact idea. I bet their design and marketing team did that on purpose. To get 3D printers into people's homes easier, they have to stop looking like the alien hulking machines that they currently do and more like innocuous appliances we already have welcomed into our homes by the millions. Popular acceptance of a technology has almost always been a battle of style, not function. You can make the most efficient and functional toaster on the planet, but if it doesn't look good, nobody will buy it en masse.

What are you going to print exactly with that build volume? Scale everything down by a factor of 6??

I have a Titan1 3D printer. It's much more cost effective. The price seems way too high. Only advantage is it's a bit more turnkey. But for the price difference I'll stick with my Kudo3d Titan1 for now.

It's doomed to fail, who does not have a strong hate for cleaning resin ? That alone would make many people stay away from SLA/DLP, unless you're some sort of maso...
Let alone the MSDS which would scared the target customers.
