I was glad when, a third of the way through the video, he said it's a 2-stroke engine, not a 1-stroke. Apart from the opposed piston arrangement, which complicates the design, It has fairly classical 2-stroke type scavenging, opening the inlet and exhaust ports at the same time, so it is unlikely to be as efficient as a 4-stroke, as a small amount of the uncombusted intake gasses will escape through the exhaust port before it closes. The video says at one point that it doesn't burn oil - which is an advantage - no quibbling about that. However, the video doesn't expand on how that is achieved. Does it have a sump? My first thought was "Does it use 2-stroke oil?" - but I guess it doesn't. However, pistons do need lubricating. It says, though, that the combustion chamber in a regular 2S is located above the piston, and combustion energy is transferred to the piston, but the conbustion chamber doesn't contribute to the motion. It only absorbs the heat generated - but this engine has pistons on both sides of the combusion chamber, allowing more efficient absorbtion of combusion energy. I guess it runs a lot hotter, then! Is that good? Most engines have cooling, either by a water jacket and radiator, or by cooling fins. How does this one get rid of the heat?
However - regardless of its advantages, it has a bigger problem than that! In a few years, it looks like internal combustion engines will be banned in new cars, so this engine has a future of about 10 years at best. Probably less! When motorists stop buying fuel, a lot of fuel stations will close. Fuel will become difficult to find - and its price will go up, so all I.C. engines will become unpopular - including ones with a "wavy component".

This technology dates back to the 50's/60's when a patent for this was bought up and surpressed by the oil industry.
Tank filled with water
A 2nd smaller tank contains small pellets of a metal like Boron
Dropping Boron into water tunrs it into Boron Hydroxide solution and gives off Hydrogen
The ICE engine burns Hydrogen gas
At a filling station, the Boron Hydroxide solution is drained and the cars tanks refilled with water and boron.
Electrolysis is used to turn the Boron Hydorxide solution back to Boron and Water, onsite at the garage.
Sounds Simple enough except...
ICE engines are about 25% efficient when burning fuel. On top of that you have the energy losses in the electrolysis of Boron Hydroxide to boron and water using hopefully Renewable energy.
A Battery Electric Vehicle charged with renewable energy can convert 80-90% of the input electrical energy into motion of the vehicle. So BEV's are at least 4x to 5x more efficient and therefore 4x -5x cheaper to run than any Hydrogen Car using green Hydrogen (Hydrogen created from renewable energy like wind, solar and hydro)
Toyota have been promising Solid state batteries by 2020, but since 2017, they are still nowhere close. Their BEV program is a disaster, and stories like this are attempts to keep shareholders happy by suggesting they have a viable alternative strategy, THEY CLEARLY DON'T!
Any manufacturer promoting hydrogen as a way of powering vehicles is a a lost cause, doesn't understand basic physics and are promoting and spending money on a project that will never reach mass production, just waste money and create yet more debt for short term share price gain. If i were invested, I would run when they start putting out stories like this

all ICE engines have to be reliable and have low maintenance and easily repaired, Imagine replacing the bearings on the piston conrod rollers, it would be the engine out and a complete rebuild replacing all seals and gaskets, Opposing piston engines are not new, What is new here is the wavy disk instead of a cam, that will wear out, as all moving metal to metal contact in an engine wears out sooner or later, as for torque at low revs with no forced induction this engine would struggle to move a car forward, it would, but would the people behind you wait until you had built up enough revolutions of the engine,
