This is just a crude early version. Eventually the tiles will be significantly smaller, quieter, and less prone to ripping toes off.
But the Toe-ripping is a major selling point!
Do you have any idea how much it’ll cost to reprint all those pamphlets?
I wonder if a layer of Ripstop over the tiles would reduce performance. I could imagine fabric being a less expensive option than R&Ding more proprietary tech like making the tiles even smaller.
Edit: Glossed over the fact the tiles rotate. Nevermind me.
