According to an explanation of Teknofest, the Teknofest -Hyperloop development competition on the campus began to start the Tübwürtak. The competition ends on Sunday, August 31.
The Hyperloop system, which can make it possible to drive on the floor at speeds near the sound speed, is based on capsules that progress in tunnels with low pressure without contacting the rails with magnetic levitation.
This technology, which was first introduced in 2013, was very interested in the development phase and worldwide, even though it made its first trip in 2020. The competition, which was organized as part of Teknofest's giving activity, aims to increase the knowledge of young engineers in this area and to promote innovative solutions.
In 2025, 280 teams and 793 members from 37 different cities applied for the Hyperloop development competition. 13 teams and 279 competitors from 7 different provinces, which successfully adopted the challenging reporting and test phases, were entitled to take part in the final. The competition is open to the participation of the national and international associate degree, studies, graduates and the doctoral students.
In the last phase, the teams show their capsules in specially produced 208 -meter -Long test tunnel. It is expected that the capsules move, accelerate, accelerate and safely stop by increasing rails with magnetic levitation by activating the brake system in the specified area. The tunnel offers a realistic test environment with its increased structure with steel, communication and security systems.
Awards and innovation categories
In addition to the performance awards of the competition, the Innovation Awards, the Steel Levitation Award and the Special Board Special Award are also found.
Innovation Awards are awarded in the categories of electromagnetic levitation, impulse system, infrastructure, communication, mechanical system (brake, integration, capsule) and socio -economic effects.
Teams, 250,000 pounds first, £ 200,000 second and £ 150,000 will win the third prizes.
