Interesting development here, ducted injectors inspired by ye olde Bunsen burner:

Potentially retro fittable too.

Great to see such a clear and easily understandable explanation.
Hope it gets off the ground.

Common rail or even unit injection will still leave it behind. It's missing the ability to inject at different points of the combustion cycle. Might be a nice retrofit to an old engine, but it's still yesterdays technology.
