The wave disc engine, a new implementation of wave rotor technology, was earlier developed by the Michigan State group in collaboration with researchers from the Warsaw Institute of Technology. The WDG also can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by as much as 95 percent in comparison to modern internal combustion vehicle engines.

The prototype is of the naturally-aspirated Split Cycle gasoline engine, and is intended to be a proof of the basic technology of the split cycle with firing after Top Dead Center (one of the key attributes of the engine and cycle). Completion of the turbocharged Scuderi Engine and the Scuderi Air-Hybrid are expected in 2010.
