2016-2017

  • Semifinalist  – The Hyperloop One Global Challenge

    Hyperloop One is a new way to move people and things at airline speeds for the price of a bus ticket. It is a futuristic concept of passenger and freight transportation using pod-like vehicles that propel through near vacuum tubes at speeds even more than airlines, around 760 miles per hour (approx 1220 km per hour). This concept of transportation was brought to the frontlines by none-other-than the legendary innovator Elon Musk.

    Founded in 2014 and headquartered in Los Angeles, the Hyperloop One company is led by CEO Rob Lloyd and co-founded by Executive Chairman Shervin Pishevar and President of Engineering Josh Giegel. In May 2016, Hyperloop One launched a Global Challenge as an open call to individuals, universities, companies and governments to develop comprehensive proposals for using Hyperloop. Out of the 35 semi-finalists worldwide, five locations are in India and one of the corridors for Hyperloop in the semi-finalist round was Bengaluru-Trivandrum, suggested by a 1st year MBCET student.

    The Hyperloop One Vision for India, showcased the 5 Hyperloop One Global Challenge (HOGC) semifinalists teams from India, each of which proposed high-speed transportation routes that could improve the lives of millions of Indian citizens. The HOGC required the teams to develop regional proposals integrating Hyperloop One’s transport technology to move passengers and freight from point-to-point, swiftly, and on demand. India led the way with highest number of registrants and had the most vocal supporters of Hyperloop One on social media.

    Mr. Joshua Biju Thomas (S2 EE2), the semifinalist who suggested the Bangalore-Trivandrum corridor and his team – Mr. Arun S Mathew (Asst. Prof, EEE Dept), Mr. Jerin Sam James (S2 EE1) showcased their proposal on February 28th, 2017 in Taj Mahal Hotel, New Delhi, at the Innovation Summit – The Hyperloop One Vision for India in New Delhi. The Backup team in the College, for Technical Guidance and Coordination includes Dr. M Satyakumar (HoD, CE), Ms. Jomole Joseph (Asst. Prof, EEE) and Ms. Soumya A V (Asst. Prof, EEE), and supported by Fr. Wilson Thattarathundil- Bursar, Dr. T M George- Principal and Prof. Shajilal A S (HoD, EEE).

    The showcase event was graced by the presence of an esteemed panel of guests including Suresh Prabhu, Minister of Indian Railways and Amitabh Kant, CEO of NITI Aayog. And the primary point of focus for the government was that Hyperloop would further better their pace of urbanisation, leading to improvements and job creation in new cities. They were of the opinion that India is in need of very sustainable and transformational form of technology, and Hyperloop definitely presents a strong case.
