.....are the main points of a possible working gravity powered device.
With a miniature model (Theo Jansen"s articulated mechanism ) ,that seems close to Rarenergia.com structure ,at : www.youtube.com/watch?v=poMAMQVGjTE...you cann't play gravity fall.
Maybe,they have a working prototype , a bigger size , as a temporary "secret" one...or they make a courageous...promise ,declaration ? Who knows ?
Anyway , it's a great attempt (and event ) in a long history of this kind (not to forget Aldo Costa ).
The size seems to be adequate , but the shape? Let's wait and hope.

.....of a possible (self-running) gravity motor , has an excellent illustration at :

If the size does seem to be ok ( like that of Aldo Costa ...) , my comment about the "shape" is "minimal": if we make a simple "cut" , we can test so easy the workableness , of this particular configuration.
The basic idea is to play the variable / oscillatory Class 1 leverage , as a continuous gravity unbalance / torque difference , on the same side of the lever's fulcrum.

About the shape : what can be the starting idea/image/concept of this device?
