Well, trapping air is pretty much how a splitter makes downforce- if the splitter just sticks out the side as a flat plane that part is not really doing much (except being very pitch sensitive). These use an airfoil shape instead of your standard endplate and fence, which probably means more force but less drag. Andrew has even applied for a patent on this.
