I believe that the spin generated about it caused much interest but the concept was flawed and was not at all likely to ever succeed. Two major sticking points before the raft of other technical difficulties being the fact that the sensor could never be produced to have similar dimensions to film and secondly that there is such variation between the film gate to cartridge distance between camera models.
