I do not think it will be affordable.
This is the closed loop system with high resolution encoder directly on RA shaft, nothing new in principle, but never cheap (because of the price of such encoders).
Classic guiding (with additional telescope and camera) is still a good enough and cost effective solution for amateurs.
