Those patents drawings don't show the same system but sram have patents for a strange 3 piston single sided brake caliper that uses a rotor with side to side 'float'.
Interesting that they both have these post mount brackets that attach at the axle.Edit - found this article

I think it does make a lot of sense but does require manufacturers to adapt frames to it...

Brake standards have been around too long. It's about time we got a new one.

Not quite a new standard as such since it looks like it'll still use post mount calipers. But will require manufacturers to make frames with a new mount.
