Full marks for thinking out of the box.
It will be interesting to watch. The claim "infinitely long" is rubbish of course, you have to balance the rest of the object, so maybe a later add-on for a 'catch ramp' of various lengths.
I'm curious how they hope to deal with alternative materials (PLA can do this but good luck trying to get that to work with TGLASE or P90 or HDPE. Also thinks like ABS that shrink and so a heated base is essential would be challenging on a belt.
No matter what, if they get it into production it will advance the understanding of the state of the art.
