For the first time, India will host a global, college-level hyperloop competition in February 2025 with a 410 m Hyperloop vacuum tube (track) at the Discovery Campus in Thaiyur Indian Institute of Technology, Madras
The Institute of Hyperloop Technology (IHT) at the University of Applied Sciences Emden/Leer, Germany, has announced its collaboration with Nevomo, a leading European deep-tech company specializing in MagRail technology. This strategic partnership aims to propel next generation mobility solutions forward, focusing on integrating MagRail technology into the IHT's "CargoTube" high-speed freight demonstrator.
Simon Whistler delves into the Hyperloop idea, its complex history, innovative companies like HyperloopTT, TransPod, EuroTube, and China's ambitious plans. Will this game-changing transportation technology redefine our world?
The Hyperloop test track in Ottobrunn near Munich is now complete. The transportation system, envisioning passenger capsules traveling at approximately 850 kilometers per hour through a near-vacuum tube, takes a crucial step forward in its research and development.
Romanian inventor Henri Coanda invented and tested the first vacuum tube transport test (what is now called the Hyperloop ); the first successful test with the vacuum tube was carried out in Bucharest, near CET SUD, in June 1971, using a pipe of 200 meters long and one meter diameter, which established the world record for the World's First Hyperloop , according to the Academy Of World Records.
A team of engineers at IIT Madras and a startup have come together to build India’s first cargo hyperloop system. A test tract for the full stack technology is being planned to be operational by June, 2023.
The Phase-I work will take place on the 50-meter test track at IIT Madras. The subsequent work to achieve a 10-km track will be completed in Phase-II and -III involving a consortium of other industry partners from the automotive, construction and engineering sectors.
