Their light engine looks very much like a classic laser printer scanner unit with a polygon mirror, so it will probably have the same issues with sharpness at the edges.
As far as i understand the F3 laser unit was designed to avoid that, the beam is always perpendicular to the build surface:
Also there is very litte information about the vat on the Kickstarter page. Big bottom-up SLA systems always have issues with adhesion forces. As far as i can tell the part cross-sections in the demo prints aren’t that big.
Edit: Actually the box shaped print seems to have substantial cross sections, so maybe the machine can deal with that issue.
