Last year, members of the听CU Hyperloop team traveled to SpaceX in Hawthorne, CA for the Hyperloop Pod Competition.
听is a conceptual transportation technology first proposed by Elon Musk in 2012. Potentially capable of speeds up to 760 mph, the concept could enable traveling across the United States 鈥� and other places around the world 鈥� in a fraction of the time it takes now. In 2015, SpaceX began a student听.听 Every year since,听听and SpaceX have hosted this competition where university student teams are tasked with designing and building a hyperloop pod with various criteria being judged, e.g. going as fast as possible.
To help prepare for this competition, the University of baby直播app Boulder is听announcing a first-ever baby直播app Hyperloop Workshop听to be held right here in Boulder, baby直播app. CU Hyperloop, one of the hyperloop teams at CU Boulder, believes that collaboration is important to being successful and advancing the technology needed for hyperloop. That鈥檚 why we鈥檙e hosting this workshop, an event aimed at bringing together local hyperloop teams from across baby直播app to share their ideas and work towards making baby直播app a hub for hyperloop development.
The baby直播app Hyperloop Workshop will be held on Saturday, Jan.听19,听in the听Idea Forge听at CU Boulder, and is scheduled to run from 3-6 p.m. Currently about 45 members from five hyperloop teams here in baby直播app will be present, including:
- 听(CU Boulder)
- 听(CU Boulder)
- 听(baby直播app School of Mines)
- 听(CU Denver)
- 听(CU baby直播app Springs)
These teams will work together to discuss their concepts for the upcoming听听and help solidify a network where team members and students can work together to compete.
Interested?听If you or a member of another hyperloop team would like to attend, please email CU Hyperloop at听cuhyperloop@colorado.edu听or on听.
