After reading the press release it seems to me its a Topological Quantum Computer[0]. They mention surface codes which are related to toric codes and toric codes are a part of topological quantum computation [1]. A explanation of toric codes can be found at [3] Their website says that they specialize in Topological Quantum Computers and Quantum Error correction (which are a feature of Topological Quantum Computers. Also the link to the researchers website mentions similar projects .
