The article is a year old. Does anyone know where the tech is actually at now?

I was expecting this to be slightly more common by now.

Now prices have fallen. We have installed about 50 systems till now
Is there a list somewhere of the publicly-accessible ones? I would love to go and see it in person.
Have you explored possibility of making this light rich enough in different wavelengths to also let plants grow under it? Or is it not possible with LEDs?
Grow lights already exist, and are several hundred times cheaper.
Fallen to what?
To $35,000 from ~$67,000. So, yeah, they're still wildly impractical. Hopefully prices will eventually come down by at least an order of magnitude.
