Self installing car seats?

I have seen it mentioned here before but I think the prototype was not quite finished. Can't remember. Very low weight limit.

I feel like 4moms puts out a string of absurd techy products for people who are eager to part with their money. This is no exception.

For me, I'd rather put my money in a car seat from a company with a solid car seat history... and I don't trust anything motorized or mechanized not to fail in this day of cheap electronics. The old school bubble levels have always works just fine for me. Or even the line to eyeball to the horizon. For all of the things 4mom has put out, I prefer to see the mechanics of an item improved rather than trust a computer or machine to do something for me.

I feel like people who don't know any better will rely too heavily on the self installing and won't double check... Installing an infant base is one of the easier car seat installs (usually from my experience) so does it really need to get this easy?
