It uses oxygen. It is NOT a cpap, but an oxygen delivery system.
Although it is portable, it needs to be tethered to an oxygen supply.
Poorly written/researched article; really got to concentrate to get the "meat" out.
Even the title is misleading. Journalism term paper; I'd give it an "F".

The first link is actually correct, they have recieved approval for their CPAP machine. I have not seen it but heard it is around the same form factor.
The second link is to their non-invasive respiratory assist device, not the CPAP.
Canada...I can't say anything nice, so I won't say anything at all.

So many cats, so few recipes.

Yes, the CPAP approval is apparently so new they don't have much about it on the web page yet...the video associated with the CPAP one is still the COPD version of the video.

I'm curious to see more about the CPAP version of it, about what functionality it includes, but it looks like that's still forthcoming.

Great, now we can lose our new miniature CPAP device as frequently as we lose/misplace our remote control devices. I can't wait.

I like my ResMed AirFit F10 FFM - reasonably low leaks for my ASV therapy. I'm currently using a PR S1 AutoSV 960P Advanced. I also keep a ResMed S9 Adapt as backup. I use a heated Hibernite hose. Still rockin' with Win 7 by using GWX to stop Win 10.

Separating the two articles, the cpap unit sounds like it may be similar to Transcend.
(wondering how the "different humidification" works.)
The wearable oxygen regulator may be useful for someone with variable oxygen needs.
Not having to go to another room to turn up the gas rate before getting into the shower could be useful.
