This being a kickstarter makes it a non-starter for me but it looks pretty promising: Hopefully they work great and become popular.

    Have you looked at puncture-resistant tires like Schwalbe Marathon?

      Exactly- I’ve been riding a $50 pair of Marathon Mondials for 5 years without a puncture, and the tech is well proven . Anyway, a sidewall cut in these new tyres is still going to allow the tyre to fill with water and road crud, so you are still going to have to repair bigger punctures anyway. Seems like an expensive solution looking for a problem.
